You can’t stop every spider. That’s just life. But you can make your home feel like a hostile, unwelcoming desert to them. Seal cracks. Clean like you’re expecting your mother-in-law. Use mint oil. And for the love of sleep, stop leaving shoes on the floor.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m about to go spray my baseboards with peppermint essence and pretend I’m the queen of my own spider-free castle. You can be, too—just don’t forget to check behind the fridge. I’ll be haunting that memory forever.
