If you're anything like me, spotting a spider around your home never means reaching for a newspaper and squashing it flat. But, while I'm a firm believer that they should always be welcomed into our homes, spiders are not always in a place you feel particularly comfortable letting them stay. For me, that's my bedroom.
In these instances, the Saillong Spider Catcher available at Amazon is the perfect solution, allowing you to remove them humanely while minimizing harm.
Here's why I think it's one of the best ways to keep spiders away, and well worth investing in for humane removal.
This cruelty-free tool is a lifesaver for spider season
All prices were correct at the time of publication.
This contactless catcher keeps you more than at arm's length, perfect if you're an arachnophobe who prefers not to squish spiders.
We've all been there – you spot a spider and immediately panic about how to keep spiders out of the garage or get rid of spiders in a basement. This is exactly where the Saillong Spider Catcher available at Amazon comes in handy.
So why do we recommend this clever catcher? One of the main reasons is that it comes with a handle that offers a range of up to 31 inches, so there's no need to get up close and personal to these pests if you're an arachnophobe, or would just rather not get quite so friendly.
But, while it's all well and good to stay at arm's length from any spiders, the product has to work. Luckily, the foolproof operation and easy-to-set-up design make removing spiders without killing them a breeze.
To use it, simply hold the trap over the spider, and manually slide the panel door at the bottom of the trap closed with your foot, or rotate the stick to close it. Then, rotate it again once outside to open it, releasing the spider outdoors safely, and keeping in mind the fact that pest pros warn you should never squash spiders in your home.
As satisfied shoppers have commented that it's a 'lifesaver' and 'works fantastic,' testifying to the fact it's simple to use, sturdy, and big enough for larger bugs and insects, you can rely on this natural pest control method.
Additionally, this product can also be used as an easy home remedy to get rid of flies, cockroaches, and more, and similarly, removing them without harm, while significantly reducing your risk of getting bitten or stung, too.
So, if you're after an affordable, effective, and cruelty-free solution to evict spiders from your home, look no further.
What to shop
This is the contactless catcher we recommend, which also folds up to save storage space when not in use.
Similarly, this critter catcher is easy to use from two feet away, with bristles that are gentle enough to catch butterflies, moths, spiders, and daddy long legs, without harming them.
For particularly bad spider problems, sometimes a humane trap isn't enough. This sticky trap can be used both inside and outdoors, and provides continuous spider control with no mess and no assembly.
As lemon can be used to repel spiders naturally, use this potent essential oil to scent your space and keep them at bay.
A small spray bottle like this is ideal for mixing up any spider-repelling solutions, with a fully adjustable spray nozzle and compact size for easy storage.
Another natural scent that works well to keep spiders away is peppermint. This essential oil is undiluted and free of any fillers or additives.
Do you know why you shouldn't use WD-40 to get rid of spiders? Our pest control pros warn that it's 'not effective.'
