REMEDIES FOR CREEPY CRAWLIES 

Since we have so many spiders and unwanted guests this year in our home, I would like to share my secret for keeping them at bay.  It's safe for pets and children, and won't drain your budget on Raid.   Sweet Annie is an herb that keeps spiders away.  Simply hang bunches around the basement, attic, or closets for a lovely fragrance as well as a repellant.  People allergic to the powdery pollen of Sweet Annie or find the smell overwhelming may use Hedge Apples as an alternative.  Hedge Apples have a mild citrus scent.  Place the green apples in undisturbed areas of your basement and attic. Keep them in place until spring.  Don't be alarmed if they shrivel and turn black as they are still repelling spiders and bugs.  I find my spring cleaning is much easier without all the cobwebs.

Try it- you'll be amazed!
