    Default Centipede spray recommendation

    My family and I are getting house centipedes and fairly large spiders in the house. They're mostly in the showers, they might have crawled up from the drain. It seems the house centipedes like dark and wet areas. I tried Ortho Home Defence spray from Home Depot but it's not working.
    Can anyone recommend a spray or product I can use to keep centipedes away?

    I got bit by one of those fuckers in the shower on the web of my pinky toe. Didn't hurt too much but I was waiting to go into anaphylactic shock.

    I just stomp on them as well as the bigger wolf spiders that I find in the shower/bathroom. I don't really mind either of them as long as they don't fuck around.

    My dogs do a pretty good job of eating any large creepy crawlers in the house. Sig also eats anything that flies, including wasps, bees, and hornets.

    Terro ant killer works for me. It even comes in a convenient shaker bag. Just spread about a 4' wide barrier around the outside of the house and it works fast.

    I got hit by one in Red Rock Canyon in texas last October. Umbitch was 5* long yellow, with a bright red front end. It was hiding under a panel that explained all you could see in the panoramic view of the canon in front of you. I leaned over,rested my belly on the wall, and that little bastard got me good. Swelled up like a hamburger!! Little fuckers need to die.

    I don't think you can get it anymore because it actually works.

    A few years ago we went to the toxic shit drop off at Qtown HS to get rid of a bunch of old crap. My dad had an old Sears brown glass 1/2 gal whisky bottle of it. It had separated, otherwise I would have kept it and used it.

    Mix per instructions and spray around the outside foundation all around the house. Been using this for years. Once in the spring and once in the fall. Best I have found to work.

    Too bad I can*t post pics. I have a pic of a very young Cdi holding the hair of the dog that bit me over 40 years ago.
    Fucker spiked me while I was hooched up. I rolled over on him in the night and he struck. In addition to the bite, he left leg marks like a dragon tattoo on my back.
    Carried the bastard for days in the bottom of my old angle head flashlight. Took it out every once in a while to step/piss/ curse it. Yeah, I can hold a grudge*.
