It's that time of the year when our homes feel invaded by spiders which can be a nightmare for those who are terrified of them.
One woman has taken to Facebook to share her tip for getting rid of spiders and her idea couldn't be easier (thankfully).
Her trick includes a household cupboard essential and involving mixing a small amount of antibacterial spray with some fresh mint.
The Facebook user shared her tip and said: "Had leftover packet of mint and small amount of cleaner left. Chopped mint and added to anti bac cleaner and filled with water.
"Sprayed under window sill outside and around the door. I watched the spiders run as I sprayed. They hate mint right enough. Some people use essential oils but I just thought I would use up what I had."
The spray Sylvia used was Waitrose Essential anti-bacterial action cleaner, which currently costs 77p for a 500ml bottle.
