Can anyone shed any light on this? My friends didn't seem to know how it

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.

I have a few horse chestnuts in a bowl on the sideboard, and it works, -
I hardly ever see a small child in my house. 8-)
