Does it kill spiders?

This stuff kills everything. I did not have creature alive after I set it off. Stink bugs, ants, spiders were all dead. These were set off in my kitchen and even insects in the upstairs bedrooms with the doors closed were dead.

My understanding is that is kills any type of hard shell bug. The product is made of tiny little shrimp. The reason that is not toxic is because the diatomaceous earth breaks down the hard shell of the bug leaving it unable to be protected by its hard cover. While I have never read anything that says that it kills spiders I would think that it does.

I do not know, I bought it for my daughter for use against mosquitoes in the baby's crib. I don't think it would help with spiders. My grandmother used to put a bowl of water around anything to keep ants out. Good luck. most spiders are not dangerous and enjoydank, dark places and eat other insects.

Tempo kills insects, centipedes and spiders. The main thing is to spray the areas where the wolf spider will come in contact with it

I can't say for sure, but its killed or kept away everything else. I suppose it would kill any insect. For the price and as much as you'll get, it's worth a shot. Hope that helps.

not sure. We purchased It for spiders, and my daughter has seen few if none since.

It doesn't work. I purchased 3 & it did repel the spiders but not the mouse. I ended up buying a glue trap to get rid of it.

I have a terrible fear of spiders and they were everywhere on my enclosed breezeway that is ground level. I read that this product does not kill spiders, but still got it because my son used it and it worked for him. I sprayed it around my enclosed breezeway where I also had a lot of ants and was shocked at the results. No spiders for the first time in years and also no ants. Had to spray more than once and the product does leave a bit of a sticky residue which washes away with the rain. I don't know if getting rid of the ants(which do react to the product) and other odd insects was the reason but I am spider free now. Amazed and very happy.

We actually purchased this product for box elder bugs that invade nearly every year and for them it is very effective. Haven't used it for spiders but we are in spider country and haven't had a problem so maybe Tempo is the reason. Sorry I can't tell you specifically because we haven't used it to attack the spiders.

It works excellent on spiders. I am not sure on the mites, but I know it kills fire ants and anything that kills them I'm sure would kill a mite.

It does kill spider mites. It produces small amount of Ozone to kill any bacteria and microscopic organism. It also eliminates any cooking smell and bathroom odor. Run only few minutes until you smell ozone in the air. Ozone smells like mild bleach. Don't leave it on and leave the house unless the house is very large. I normally fog the house with insecticide to kill spider and mites.

don't know. didn't have a spider issue. seems to have worked on stink bugs; only a few this year and they were decidedly disoriented and sluggish on the screens.

While the product will control a wide variety of spiders, they wil lnot die immediately. Once they come into contact with the product, the product is absorbed into the spiders and insects and they should die within a few hours.

I am not sure the type of spider that bit me since I did not see it but we have some black widows that go back and forth between mine and our neighbors fence and I am hoping it works good on those too. It seemed to extract well. We have a dog that received large scars from a spider bite several years ago and after starting the summer out with tons of snakes, I decided to get this and keep it on hand to try on anything that it may help. So I don't know the exact answer but I sure hope it does!

I have found 2 dead, small spiders inside my back sliding door. Not sure if it was because of a line of boric acid that I placed orif it was from the riddex. Sorry I couldnt give you a better answer, but its a truthful answer. We have plenty of bugs in florida and the Riddex seems to work on all the other bugs.

Roaches yes, spiders yes, although it doesn't call out specific species. It does not say grasshoppers but It does say crickets. Toxic to fish and cats! I have used for spiders and ants and it works well. Here is a link to a PDF file for treatment and specific insects. http://www.doyourownpestcontrol.com/SPEC/LABELS/PermethrinSFR_Label.pdf

As far as I know, he hasn't tried that yet. Personally, I believe it would if you are within range. It's worked on every bug he's aimed it at within the proper range. It took me two tries to kill a big spider because I was afraid to get close enough. You have to be within three feet of your target. Good luck!
