I'm no expert but it's my understanding that spiders are harder to kill due to their long legs. Basically they walk above the poison and they don't groom themselves with their legs like other insects. I don't think Talstar is ideal for spiders from what I've read but I suppose it may work. Let us know the results.

just a friendly reminder if you have pets be careful with it, it can cause seizures in dogs almost lost one of my dachsunds yrs ago water it in good

You know my brain is thinking crane flies not daddy long legs. I’ve always called the flies that.

so do you have crane flies or spiders? Both are harmless by the way, and lots of things eat crane flies. If you have spiders, they eat crane flies too

Better that than calling them mosquito hawks

millions of crane flies. Seems the talstar kills the larvae not sure it kills the millions of adult shite heads flying around.

pull out your shop vac and make them disappear. Non toxic and oddly satisfying

If you are going for oddly satisfying, get the tennis racket bug zapper and go to town.

Probably but Suspend SC will kill it all…a bug desert within a few days.
