You need to eliminate their food source. Spiders feed on other insects. If they have nothing to east, they will go away. *Daddy Long Legs are not in the same category as spiders. They do not have the same food source as spiders, so beware of this when following the above advice. Two more facts, they have no venom, no fangs, and cannot bite. They are also night prowlers..for those of you who sleep with your mouth open... *Daddy Long Leg Spiders are the most venomist spiders in the world, however their fangs are not long enough to penitrate our skin..(thankfully). *I use an item you can buy at Lowes, Home Depot. It's really a mouse trap, it has this really sticky substance on it and when something wlks on it it sticks to it. I don't have mice but I do have a lot of spiders and this thing works great for trapping spiders plus other insects. Just place them around the house, garage etc. and let it do the work. No smelly or unsafe chemicals either. *Actually the bit about them being the most poisonous spider is a myth .. it is no scientifically true. According to the University of California, Riverside: There is no reference to any pholcid spider biting a human and causing any detrimental reaction. If these spiders were indeed deadly poisonous but couldn't bite humans, then the only way we would know that they are poisonous is by milking them and injecting the venom into humans. For a variety of reasons including Amnesty International and a humanitarian code of ethics, this research has never been done. Furthermore, there are no toxicological studies testing the lethality of pholcid venom on any mammalian system (this is usually done with mice). Therefore, no information is available on the likely toxic effects of their venom in humans, so the part of the myth about their being especially poisonous is just that: a myth. There is no scientific basis for the supposition that they are deadly poisonous and there is no reason to assume that it is true. *Hello, as to the myth of the daddy long legs being the most venomous spider in the world, discovery channel's mythbusters laid that one to rest on Episode 13: Buried in Concrete, Daddy
You can prevent Daddy Long Legs by sealing off entry points like cracks and gaps, keeping your home clean and clutter-free to remove hiding spots, and using a vacuum or broom to remove any Spiders you see. Consider using sticky traps as a non-toxic way to catch them.
Daddy Longlegs are really good to have around because they are such great predators of other tiny insects and they are not poisonous. However, if you are overflowing with them, or just don't want them around, you can use any type of insecticide that would work on spiders, like the bug 'bombs' for inside and other sprays outside.
The best way to get rid of daddy long legs spiders in your home is to fog your house with insecticide to kill any that are living there. Spraying a solution of peppermint oil and dish detergent mixed in water around windows and doors can discourage more spiders from coming inside.
