My daughter and son in law have Horse Chestnuts in most rooms of their
house
for the same reason ............................... and it works.


See, we have horse chestnuts all over the house, but it's nothing to do
with
the spiders and all to do with the small children. Unfortunaetly it
doesn't
seem to deter them.


What? Small children? Too late now ;-} Aspirin held firmly between the knees
