Spiders love to build webs in front of our security cameras - if I clean them, they often will start rebuilding almost immediately. I ran across a recipe for a DIY peppermint oil based repellant, tweaked it with AI and am going to give it a try. Here is the modified recipe as well as the link to the original video.
16 cups (1 gallon) distilled water
2 oz peppermint oil
1–1.5 oz polysorbate 80
2 oz isopropyl alcohol (70–90%)
