Does anyone know of good spider/bug treats for your house that are safe to use around houseplants? And I mean normal spiders. I’ve looked at bug bombs but it says it’s not safe to use around plants. I’m hoping someone has found something good and effective to use! *picture so my post doesn’t get lost
I use my own mix with soap, oil, peppermint, and vinegar. It’s very very effective. Neem oil is also a plant friendly alternative,

0 Likes Neem, no. That I will use on the actual plant or spray outside if I see webs forming. The homemade mix, yes. But I also use it to dust. So it is a both and. For example, I’ll spray it on a microfiber rag and I’ll clean the baseboards off with it

Just now seeing this, thank you!!
