Spiders problems found inside are usually from high populations outside
around the structure and unfortunately treating the exterior is what is
done to reduce the numbers.

Well the best fix for something like that is to pull the bushes and shrubs
away from the foundation. Plants shouldn't be close to the house anyway, if
only for this very reason, but also because it can compromise the siding,
promote decay of the siding, and possibly compromise the foundation itself.
