    But what about the fallout in Arizona?? OK, I'll sign. I'm out of range until Climate Change makes the jetstream and the jet contrails weird.

    Night all.

    Buy a strip of fly paper. Or more than one. Then sweep out spiders. Or get Electric fly swatter at Harbor Freight for $4. I bought one of those for my apartment. If I don't plug the drain in the kitchen sink when I leave. I have fruit and house flies when I come back after a week or ten days.

    Are they from the tarantula migration?

    Don't need something big like a gecko. get a centipede. Centipede's look disgusting but they avoid humans, they'll only bite at you if you threaten them (meaning if you're an idiot and pick one up with your bare hands, so use a paper towel or something). They will run away from you and hide from you if you go towards them. They can get kind of big but I promise they will get every single bug in that truck. They won't go anywhere near you when you're driving or sleeping, they'll just find a nice place to hide out in the dark (for some reasons in homes they like bathrooms and tubs).

    I don't really think you can buy them at petshops (although you could check) but if you notice them in your home, just catch one and put it in a plastic bag with a hole in it so it doesn't suffocate and don't crush it when you pick it up with a paper towel. Then just let it loose in your sleeper birth and it'll find itself a home somewhere (out of sight) and will eat every single spider in that truck.

    Fun fact: Centipedes will also eat BED BUGS too if you are ever unlucky enough to get that scourge in your truck. And bed bugs truly are a scourge to get rid of, go read about the horror stories online and how expensive it is to get rid of them they can live for 1 year without food (which is your blood) they are bad.

    I think I mis lead you. You need to stop the flys no matter what. You should trust the science. No flys = no spiders.

    New crapcadia life is a gutless wonder. The regular driver told me it’s a 505 horsepower it pulls good. 37K in the box and 40mph up Jellico hill is hardly a good runner. IMHO DD15s suck they can brag about fuel mileage and nothing else.
