I was reading in a book that said. Add one package of chewing tobacco to 1 gallon of boiling water, let it cool and add a little liquid detergent and apply with a hose end sprayer around the house will deter any spiders from coming around your house.

I have to use a multibug incesticide about every other month to keep the bugs and spiders away now on my property. Just looking for a cheaper and maybe better method.

No, but I would be interested to see if it would work. I don't really have a problem with bugs in the house but every once in a while I will find a black widow outside. I would hate for my daughter to get a hold of that. I have always heard that the only way to eliminate spiders is to eliminate their food source.
