Just wonder if anyone can help me out here at all. I do some commercial work where this
particullar summer they have been plagued and I mean plagued with spiders and masses and
I mean masses of their woven webs etc.It`s like string and rope twine all over the glass windows
and walls.In a few days time they are having some `big wig` bosses come over from Japan on
an open day event and the branch manager has asked me if there`s anything I can do.They`ve
had problems before.Just thought if there`s any bug,spider spray repellent that could be used
to help eleviate the problem for future times.The branch manager says its because the building
is near a river.I must say I don`t have any problems with any other of my accounts.Its the only
job I do thats near a river.Comments and advice much appreciated and thanks in advance.

Boy do I wish there was something that could shift it!
We were doing a school at the weekend, and it was spider-web city. Horrible and gooey stuff, at one point I had 3 spiders dangling from the end of my brush, trying to cling on for dear life and being sprayed with pure water.
Yes it is a problem, if anyone has a solution I'd be interested in hearing it.

In the end I`ve given the walls,signs,window glass a real good D.I.,pure water `blast`
and I`ve drowned,`nuked`, and washed the little blighters away! So far so good,there`s
nothing much come back over the weekend but there`s time yet I guess. Thanks for all
the advice.
