    Spider/pest control on dock

    Anyone have a good DIY solution for dock spiders. Tired of sweeping spider webs off the dock each morning and cleaning spider crap off the vinyl. Is there a good spray that could be applied at the end of the weekend when we leave to help repel them?

    Home defense. I usually spray it on the cover of our lift and the structural supports once to twice a summer. I do not know if it is biodegradable but it keeps the spiders and other bugs away.

      I struggle with this at LOTO. They supposedly spray our docks, but it is spider central. I have to broom the dead bugs and spiders off if I am gone for any amount of time...

        We have a commercial company spray our cottage 3 times a year. What ever they spray keeps all bugs, spiders off of the cottage and boat house.

        Try the home defense on the boat lift and dock it works for us.

          Here is a product called "tempo" I get from my local coop, and it works great around the house and is human safe. Turns bugs, and spiders upside down in their tracks! Not sure if water/fish safe, but with some precaution it should be fine to use. It won't stain carpet so should be fine if sprayed on a bimini etc. Unlike the box store brand bug killers that only last a couple of days this stuff leaves a residual for up to 30 days.

            We sell a product called Spider away from Starbrite, it is some form of mint oil (they say). I have several customers who use that and another customer who uses mint oil on the docks and around the outside of the boat and then keeps cool whip bowl of moth balls in the boat when the cover is on. Puts the lid on the mothballs while boating and puts them back out when he leaves. No spiders under the covers on his boat. Apparently spiders have sensitive noses.

              Hello guys, It just happened that I have stumbled upon this forum post. I am not sure if I am allowed to share some reference here but I'll share it anyway http://www.anticimex.com/en-NZ/nz/re...ntrol/Spiders/

              Just wanted to share a resource, I have no intentions of showing some advertisement or something. Hope that this one will help, most especially guys from NZ.

                A spider infestation is harder to anticipate than most other infestations. Spiders tend to favour dark, poorly-lit places throughout your home. The best way to prevent them from filling your home is to keep it clean and make sure you check your basement, attic, and other storage places frequently. Calling a pest company like pest control termites Stockton, when it become impossible to solve the problem is the intelligent decision always.

                      This stuff has worked well in my shop/house for spiders and other bugs.

                      no smell to it. Leaves a fine white dust when dry.

                        I am guessing you mix that with water in a sprayer?

                          I think you need to call pest control.

                          spiders removal from any place is very tough and specially when you are doing it by yourself. Seems that, everyday you are facing the same thing. It signals that, amount of spiders in your house are very high. I recommend you to call pest control service provider near your area, for the perfect removal of spiders.

                              Tempo is great stuff. Has a solid residual for a month. Probably get a little more out of it. It's pretty safe once it dries. Another one that works great in spiders is demon.
