Default Re: Black Widow Spider

We just returned from a 2 week trip to Connecticut. Before we left I bought a giant bag of garlic... It was on sale and I couldn't resist, but I accidentally left it in the garage. When we came home from the trip the garage positively reeked of garlic, but there was not one bug to be found in the garage! No spiders, no ants, no box elder bugs... NOTHING! It's as if I vacuumed the whole garage! (I won't even leave my car windows open in case something lurking in the garage should climb in and try to attack me when I'm driving on the interstate) If you don't mind your garage smelling like a deli, you might want to give it a try the next time you find garlic on sale. I knew it kept away the vampires... but spiders? Who knew? :dontknow:
