I bought these from Amazon and I have had them down for two days in various rooms, including the kitchen, I already have electronic thingies, but I don’t know that they’re doing much so I was hoping these would be good
They cost £19.99 and the smell is quite bad initially but I was quite prepared to put up with that. What I wasn’t prepared to put up with is when I’ve just gone out and looked beside the cooker where I put one, There was a blinking great house spider actually sat on top of it
So I’m returning it and getting my money back…

There is a product called Spidex it’s in aerosol and it works.

Spiderex deters I couldn’t kill a spider.

I leave them alone as their webs catch flies and mosquitoes.

Used to get this for my mum as she was frightened of them, and after she was widowed it was easier for her to have this, than call me to sort out a spider

They frighten me, I wouldn't go near enough to them to kill them
