Hello to everyone, Lately I been getting spider inside Prius. Anyone have any ideal of how to get them not to go inside at all. I am driving they pop up in the windshield. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
Totally scientific... But I believe spiders are like vampires, and they cannot officially enter your vehicle unless invited first.
We have tree all over but a lot of time I park not under the tree. It depends once I get work . Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
Spiders are attracted by flies, flies are attracted to smellyness, clean your car DR P.s. for the folk who don't understand Brit humour this is a joke
Spiders are everywhere and they can get it cracks and holes so small you will never keep them out. The car has to breathe so it by definition has holes big enough for a spider. Just be glad the spiders aren't nesting in the fuel tank like what caused a recent Mazda recall: Mazda issues recall because spiders invade fuel tank causing fire risk. Or be glad they aren't dropping down from inside your motorcycle helmet while riding down the road!
I wonder if you could take some ortho home defense and spray it around your HVAC air intake. I suspect that's where they're coming from since you say they come up on the windshield. Of course then you'd get to enjoy the smell of home defense....
I've had a spider at least once that I can recall. I opened all the doors and blasted air through with my leaf blower for a good while, that seemed to chase it out. They could hunker down in a corner, resist that, but worth a try. Or per @The Electric Me, try garlic, and maybe a cross dangling from the rear view?
As a youth, I once had a spider in my underpants, whilst I was wearing them, after taking them straight off the washing line outside. A bit of an itchy shock initially, but fortunately I'm not afraid of spiders, there are no dangerous ones in the UK AFAIK.
That's true that there are no dangerous native British spiders, but once in a Welsh hospital ward there was a guy in the bed next to mine with a flesh eating problem and surgeons had to keep cutting deeper and deeper into his leg to get it all out. He was a fork lift truck driver and they thought he'd been bitten by an unidentified bug/spider stowed away in imported tropical fruit he was transporting. I have been bitten (painfully) by British spiders 3 times, but never poisoned. Did once get one ant in my undergarments after digging the garden though. Won't say exactly where it bit me, but I think they heard my yell on the other side of town!
