I am having a problem with very small spiders in my home. I see them
here and there on the ceiling, sometimes they drop down and onto
furniture or a lamp. This morning, I found one on my mattress. They
are not baby spiders on the way to growing larger, but rather they
look like this is their normal size, maybe 1/8"across.

How does one deal with this? Will fogging help? I can't see spraying
the ceiling, as that will probably impact the paint.


Probably coming in from the lawn outside, will literally be 100s of
thousands per yard. If you have recessed lighting they may be coming
from the attic also. A fogger will only kill what the chemical comes in
contact. Any general insecticide treatment from what you get from a
garden center that connects to the garden hose and treat the grass out
from the house and up the sides of the house. There are numerous
insecticide mixtures that you can treat the corners and other wall area
that won't effect the paint at all. Know too that what you may get over
the counter may only have an effectiveness of days to a couple of weeks.
