And we have tons of spiders here. Before we bought this house last summer the people that lived here trashed the place. I guess they always had cars in the frontyard and stuff. The owner I guess was a slum lord pretty much and never did a thing to this place. So then somenoe bought it, totally redid the inside of the house and the exterior of the house, but didn't do a thing to the yard. So when we got here last August the yard was so full of all sorts of insects that you could just stand there and stare at the ground and see bugs running everywhere through the grass.

So before knowing a thing about organic gardening, I went out and got a big bottle of triazicide and sprayed the entire yard. Had to do it twice before the bug population around our house was more bearable. But of course the darn spiders were still everywhere. We have these one spiders that look like daddy long legs, but they aren't. I can't remember what they are called. But they are EVERYWHERE lol.
So this year since its warming up and all the creepy crawlies are coming out again I want to use something organic or better for the environment and for me and my animals.
How well does the Diatomaceous and the Nematodes work on keeping bugs away?
I've also put in several bird feeders, bird houses, squirrel feeders (I love watching them and it keeps them out of the bird feeders for the most part) and a bat house because mosquitos are also insane here and I'm allergic to them.
