Tips to get rid of spiders in your car

Spiders like dark, warm places, making your vehicle a perfect place for them to set up camp. Follow these tips to keep them out of your car!

  • Thoroughly clean the interior of your car. Spiders love a bit of dirt, so making sure you regularly clean out your car, including vacuuming floor mats and underneath your seats, can be helpful to deter them.
  • Wipe down surfaces with an all-purpose cleaner. Try to do this as regularly as possible.
  • Check your door seals and keep your windows rolled up whenever possible. Spiders can enter your car through small holes, so check the rubber seals on your car to make sure there are no holes or cracks for a spider to sneak through.
  • Try using non-toxic spider repellants. You can find non-toxic spider repellant sprays at home improvement stores, or make your own using a combination of water and a few drops of citrus, rosemary, garlic, peppermint, or lavender essential oils. Spray the repellant along the seams of your doors and windows, as well as around the hood of your car to help deter spiders from finding their new home in your car.
