Azazello1313 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 found one of these f'ers in my garage last night. of course, the first thing I did was break out one of my macro lenses to take some pictures (maybe I'll post later). then I caught it in a mason jar, where it awaits sentencing. there's a little gap under my garage door on one end, I assume that is how it got in. does normal raid type stuff work in keeping her friends and relatives out?

skylive5 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Not sure, but I don't think Raid will do it. But.... http://www.vvh.org/pages/p-your-health-top...ticides-226.php Although pyrethrin is registered specifically for black widow spiders, other space sprays of resmethrin (Vectrin) are useful for clean outs in outbuildings, crawl spaces, etc. Many common insecticide aerosols will control the occasional spider. Some are labeled for homeowner use, while others are labeled only for the licensed, certified, pesticide applicator or pest control operator.

Jimmy Neutron Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 That's a good spot to check for them going forward. No many how many I killed as a kid, I could always find them in their favorite corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyrethrins will give you quick knock down but no residual. Pyrethroid will give you some knock down with good residual. Some newer chemistry like phenylpyrazole won't give you much knock down but have excellent residual plus are not detected by insects. Some interesting info.

Duchess Jack Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 in cases where raid does not work - auqanet and lighter typically does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
