Spider Season Hack: Does Lemon Cleaner Really Keep Pests Away?
**Homeowners Turn to Lemon Cleaners to Combat 'Spider Season'** As "spider season" approaches, many homeowners are seeking innovative ways to keep eight-legged visitors at bay. A recent viral video highlights a popular home hack involving the use of lemon-scented cleaning products to deter spiders from entering residential spaces. The video, uploaded by user daniellecq31, demonstrates spraying Astonish Kitchen Cleaner with a zesty lemon scent around window and door frames. The premise suggests that the citrus aroma acts as a natural repellent, discouraging spiders from crossing these treated barriers. The effectiveness of this method has sparked considerable discussion among online communities. While some users report success with lemon or peppermint oils, others express skepticism, pointing out that many house spiders are already residents and that such sprays might only encourage them to relocate within the home rather than leave entirely. "The big house spiders are called that because they live in your house all year round," one commenter noted, "you only see them at mating time so no amount of spraying stuff will make a difference." Despite the varying opinions, the video taps into a universal desire for natural and accessible pest control solutions, offering a simple, albeit debated, approach to managing household spiders.
