What spider is this? There is a bumper crop of them at the range this year.

I use Talstar P. It’s a professional insecticide. You can get it off Amazon. It is excellent. I have dead spiders all around the outside. I had to kill two black widows the other day. One was up in my tripod yard sprayer. I was walking around with it to move it and I had no idea it was there.

We’ll save spiders in the house and take them outside. But my rule is if it’s fast and brown inside I squish first and ask questions later. Our two boys aren’t scared of spiders at all. They’ll find one crawling on the floor and ask if it’s a dangerous spider or not. Same way with snakes. Our 5 year old was holding a small water snake the other day and it but him. He yelled out “it bit me! On purpose!”

Do they have a spray for pygmy rattlers? I hate those passive aggressive little so and so’s. 🤬

I use Demon from doyourown.com. It’s cheap permethrin. 4 packets in an envelope for about $15. Each packet makes a gallon. No measuring as the packets are water soluble. Throw it in the sprayer and shake well, then spray. The chemical is listed to kill for three months and is safe for kids and pets after drying.
In reality it kills much longer as I’ve seen insects walk across the kill zone and belly up 6 months later.
You saw a insect cross the kill zone, then 6 months later watched it drop dead!

Thats amazing!


Did you call Ripley's? 🙂
Proper verbiage should have been, after application, insects have expired 6 months after the chemical was applied when entering the kill zone. 😂
Yeah, I was a wonderin how you ear tagged a spider.

I spray this around the doors and windows outside and around the baseboards and under the fridge and under dressers/couches and no bug survives long in this house.
2.0 % Permethrin NO smell either.
Great for ridding the place of ants also.

I use it in my rental houses and all are bug free.

Way cheaper and mix what ya need.
