Post-Holiday Gloom

Well, we're back from a lovely holiday, and I really don't have much to complain about. The weather's rather nice, my baby is sleeping most of the night(!) and there's a long weekend up ahead, thanks to the Queen.

Except we got home to find spiders. Yes, spiders. And I'm terrified of spiders. They'd made my home their own. Little sods.

I appeal to you, blogosphere-dwellers: how does one keep them away?!

  1. Ick, I don't like spiders either. Um, I don't really have any advice on how to keep them away. Good luck though.

  2. I hate spiders, too. You poor thing. Apparently strategically placed conkers keep spiders away.

  3. Sorry you've been invaded. It's hard to spray for spiders because bug killer doesn't work unless you spray them directly.

  5. Watch out for any holes/cracks in the walls and keep them covered is an idea.

  6. I get those sticky spider traps, they seem to work for us. My husband also bought some awesome bug away stuff to put around the front of your house to keep them away, can't remember what it's called.
