My husband and I killed a black Widow in our barn two nights ago. We just moved to the property 2 weeks ago. Some had recommended using a exterminator company to spray the house and barn.

What is your experience with this? Any suggestions?

We are expecting our first child and are a bit worried about the chemicals.

Thank you!

Save yourself a lot of money and do it your self with Tempo SC. I work for a coop and we sell cases and cases and cases of it every year. It's what a lot of exterminators use (I sell to several). Runs $50+ for a 240mL bottle, but it makes up 30 gallons of spray (a bottle usually lasts me at least two or three years). It has a grocery/restaurant label, no odor, non-staining, very very safe. When I need to spray, I run home over a lunch hour, spray, then have ZERO worries about bringing my 3 year old home and letting him play on the floor. I even take my food out of the cabinets and pantry, spray it, then return the food when it's dry. Keeps the meal moth worms out of my flour, pasta and beans. It's one of the few things with spiders on the label. Most products won't kill spiders because they walk on their tip toes and don't get enough chemical on them to kill them.

Thank you so much! Do you just follow the base boards in the house?

I do all the baseboards and up all the corners, around all the doorways inside and out. And under the beds.
