According to the search results, there are several essential oils that can repel spiders. Here are some of the most commonly mentioned ones:

• Peppermint oil
• Citrus oils (orange, lemon, and lime)
• Eucalyptus oil
• Citronella oil
• Cedarwood oil
• Tea tree oil
• Lavender oil

Spiders are repelled by strong scents, especially those that require direct contact, as they smell through their legs. Peppermint oil is usually said to be the most effective, but it is not recommended to use around children under 6. Citrus oils are also popular choices for repelling spiders. Essential oil sprays dont kill spiders, but they create an environment that they are not into, and so they leave. Here are some ways to use essential oils for spiders:

• Apply a line of oil across an entry point (where you think they are coming into your home)
• Dilute the oil with water, put it in a spray bottle, and cover a larger area where youve found them
• Soak a cotton ball with oil and put it either in access points or places they like to hang out

Its important to note that while some essential oils have shown repellent or killing activity against mites, ticks, or both, their effectiveness against spiders has yet to be clinically tested.
