I ask them quietly and respectfuly to stay out of our living area. I remind them that my large family will race to kill them. Soooo, they need to stay out of our sight. They do that very thing. If I see one I remind them they are in danger and run away from us. They do that very quickly.Debbrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07896244599961458979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-61179677877502076992018-10-01T10:15:37.078-04:002018-10-01T10:15:37.078-04:00I don't think peppermint mouthwash will work b...I don't think peppermint mouthwash will work because the alcohol will cause the peppermint scent to dissipate too quickly. A bottle of peppermint oil is about $5 at walmart and it lasts quite a while. I'm not sure about the lemon pine sol, but as long as the surface your using it on won't be harmed give it a try! It should work.<br /><br />LisaLA Muranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00827994015402999638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543427408513948174.post-61183195655132891512018-09-29T00:53:43.362-04:002018-09-29T00:53:43.362-04:00Will peppermint mouthwash in a spray or Lemon Pine...Will peppermint mouthwash in a spray or Lemon Pine Sol in a spray work if I make them?

I was sitting in my usual place one night, and a spider dropped down from the ceiling on a single thread of web. GROSS.OUT. You should have seen my gyrations! <br />I didn't realize there were remedies for them, other than bug spray. Lots of tips here I didn't know.
