How to keep Wasps/Fles/Spiders out of house?
So, my friend who is over all the time is DEATHLY allergic to Bees and Wasps. I live in a small small town and there are wasps everywhere outside and the house is old so it's easy for them to get inside. I was wondering if any of you guys know any inexpensive ways to keep them out of the house so she doesn't get stung?
Though it's not as large of a priority, do you know any ways to prevent Fleas? We have had them several times and we get rid of them every winter, but every year around July they come back. We spray, treat the animals, clean everything, even wash our laundry with ammonia. But they keep returning. One year it was so bad my friends got infested too. Since this winter was so harsh they aren't nearly as bad, so we're trying to be rid of them once and for all. Is there anything we can do so they don't come back? This has been happening for years now... Anything on spiders would be nice too :)
Thanks

sprinkling a bit of Diatomaceous Earth along walls or any places insects may hide will kill them, though I will say some spiders are good to have around as they help control the bug population as well. If you do this, make sure it's food grade DE so it wouldn't cause you any problems. It's cheap, too, but cleaning it up can be a nuisance.
For wasps, see if you can tell where they're coming from. If you can find their hive, spray it with an insecticide at night while they're sleeping and it should kill them all.
