Guest guest Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 I am looking for a way to get rid of the creepy crawlies (bugs & spiders) in a basement bedroom in our house. Is there a natural remedy for these? What about an essential oil blend? I have small children so I'd prefer to use something natural and not toxic. Thanks for your help ~Diane mommysdaydream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Re: Basement Bugs Dehumidify the room first. Vacuum to get up all dust and food crumbs. Use Hepa vacuum. No more eating in the bedroom. Hepa air filter for room. Diatomaceous Earth spread around edge of room and windows. Can use insect spray outside windows. (If this doesn't work, move upstairs.)

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 I personally have had great results with peppermint & spearmint sprays. Hope it helps you as well Indigo Wings , " Diane " <mommysdaydream wrote: > > I am looking for a way to get rid of the creepy crawlies (bugs & > spiders) in a basement bedroom in our house.
