STAR BRITE Spider Away – Safely Chase Away Spiders & Other Pests Without Harm - Ideal for Use On Garages, Porches, Docks, Boathouses, Home & More - Safe to Use Around People, Pets & Wildlife

Great product from starbrite! Our dock has tons of spiders. It’s our third year at our marina and this product I started using at the beginning of the boating season and wow what a change in spider population on our boat. This product doesn’t kill them it simply keeps them away. Spiders are hard to kill without using a harsh product that’s dangerous for you and the environment especially if your near water. Starbrite uses natural ingredients that are environmentally safe. My only gripe would be it could be a bit cheaper but I say that about everything.

Takes a couple days to work, but then keeps the critters away for a couple weeks. I like that it is pet safe. It smells kind of weird and "herby" but that fades after a few hours and then is gone the day after.

After reading various reviews I was apprehensive about the product but finally ordered some due to the high concentration of spiders around our entry doors, numerous widows and vinyl siding. We power washed the siding and windows to rid the dirt, spider webs and the many black spider droppings that covered the window sills, door ways, and decking (covered decks). We then lightly sprayed the corners, door and window sills with the Spider Away (outside the house)when all areas were dry. The product does have a mint smell as identified by other reviews but outside it is a refreshing scent and you can tell the effective areas of application. Keeping in mind that we have a resort style home that is next to the woods with a lot of windows for watching wildlife which generates a lot of bugs at night from the lighting but we have had a 95% reduction of spider home making and almost no spider residue. It should be noted that we made a second application of the product in 10 days and then the next one in 30 days. An additional note is that even some of the night time bugs have been slightly reduced seemingly as a side benefit. We loaned some to neighbor who sprayed some around his fishing boat dock and he has seen a reduction in his spider activity even though there are other docks around his. It worked for us - maybe it can work for you.

If I could give this product a 0, I would. This spray does absolutely nothing to deter nor kill the spiders. We have tried spraying constantly and see no improvement at all! Do not waste your money!

I actually like spiders. They offer invaluable services to those who like to garden. When I find them in the house, I have no problem picking them up or letting them crawl onto me and then releasing them outside. But when they feed off me in the middle of the night - causing painful bite welts that last for several weeks - then they have to go. That's how I got to Spider Away. It's purportedly non-toxic and designed to repel spiders rather than cause them to suffer a miserable death. The first thing I did is take apart the bedroom, and everything in it, and then painstakingly vacuum everything and everywhere. I paid particular attention to where the walls meet the ceiling, and also, possible hideouts within the furniture. I found two spiders hiding in the recesses of the bed, and unfortunately for them, they were executed on the spot. Death was humanely administered by way of vacuum cleaner. Someone had to pay the price for those bites. I then sprayed the product all around the bedroom and in every location where they might gain entry. I sprayed where the walls meet the ceiling -- which is where many of them like to hang out and lay their eggs -- as well as at floor level and any place where they might hide. It's only been a month, but there's no evidence of any new spiders. It's December right now, which is not exactly spider season around here. Next August or September, I'll try to provide an update as to how the product did through the summer.My biggest complaint (so far) is that before purchasing the product, I wrote the company and asked them what substance they were using as a repellent. I wanted to know that before buying. They never responded. They also don't provide that information at their website. So for concealing that information from prospective buyers, they get three stars instead of something higher. For those of you who are wondering what they're using, it's peppermint oil. That's the only active ingredient listed on the bottle. It's 97.5% inert ingredients, and 2.5% peppermint oil. So if you have some peppermint oil lying around, you might be able to get by with that. One concern I had is that after using the product, the bedroom would reek of peppermint. So I used it very sparingly at first. As it turns out, it's pretty much odorless. It has a very slight scent of peppermint when first sprayed. Moments later, I couldn't smell anything at all. So that hasn't been a problem.

This really works as advertised. The eaves of my house were constantly covered with spider webs. It was an ongoing battle to keep them clean. Also porch lights and window sills. After removing all of the webs with a broom and Star Brite Spider cleaner, I doused the areas with Spider Away. Initially I purchased two bottles which covered most of the areas but I ended up ordering four more. It's been a few months and little to no spider activity. The porch lights look brand new, not a web in sight. It does have a strong peppermint-ish smell for the first few days but it's not bad and dissipates. Also stucco walls that were sprayed have a slight glossy look to them for a week or so but it is subtle. This also works great on pool equipment.I highly recommend and will continue to use it.

Use this on my boat to keep the spiders away. Works great

I live on a lake and have many spiders. The spiders don’t like the spray sprayed on them but I’m not sure it actually kills them. It does not repel spiders at all. Still looking for something to kill and keep them away.
