Will this product work on widow spiders?

Yes! I searched far and wide for a good insecticide that would also work for widows. I had 3 different species of widow spiders (Southern Black, Northern Black, and Brown) brooding around my house. I was finding 3-4 a day at one point! I sprayed very well around the perimeter of the house and it knocked the population significantly. All of my neighbors were still complaining about them but none around my house! Just to test it, I once sprayed a specimen directly (it was a Northern Black Widow) before going to bed. I came back the next morning and found it dead on the ground.

The short answer is . . . I don't know. To expand somewhat on that, I must say that my initial endorsement of this product has been tarnished of late by the discovery of spiders and a mouse in our house that surprised me. I don't know that it's fair to expect any product to by 100% effective, however. The mouse may have wandered in by accident and was on his way out when our cat nabbed him. Who knows. We live in the country, so to expect there to be never a spider ever is unrealistic. And the ones we've seen are few and far between. But reptiles? I would think they would be as susceptible to the product as any other critter. These little lizard guys run loose anywhere they want to go and some will stupidly come in even if the device is working perfectly. That's my take. Hope this helps.

I have removed many spiders with past Dust Busters. Above model seems to have even more suction power. Believe it should work on any kind of spiders.

The only thing I bought it for was spiders. I don't have Mosquitos, Roaches or Mice in my house so I can't help you with this. Yes it works for spiders.

It is suppose to kill exoskeletal bugs which a spider is. Although for it to be effective for your spiders you will have to put it in an area that they will crawl through as it needs to get on their legs/body to be effective. I use it in my chicken coop but only in the bedding...works great on the bugs i am targeting...but i still get a few spiders but they are probably coming in through the windows. Good luck.

Will for sure catch mice...olive oil does work great to remove stick residue from anything...my cat found one & I used oil to remove it from her tail. I have used them for years & have found if I place them against the baseboard near a nite light they work even better! Hobo's are rather blind & they are attracted by the light. I have caught millions!! of spiders !!

It killed all spiders I tried it on, but I am not sure what kind they were.

I have found 2 dead, small spiders inside my back sliding door. Not sure if it was because of a line of boric acid that I placed orif it was from the riddex. Sorry I couldnt give you a better answer, but its a truthful answer. We have plenty of bugs in florida and the Riddex seems to work on all the other bugs.

I do not know if it works for spiders, I do not have any, however I do know it does not work for carpenter ants.

This does not work, especially for insects and spiders. Indoor spiders can be removed with a vacuum. outdoor spiders are good bird food and should be ignored.

Yes, it works on most everything including wasps, small spiders, and even most beetles.

I do not know, because I have not seen or killed a wolf and brown recluse spider. I have just killed hobo spiders and others insects, but it does not kill on contact you have to wait a few minutes.

I am not sure if it kills black widow spiders with direct contact. I used it for the roach problem that I had at my apartment and it had worked perfectly. Well even though roaches didn't die when I sprayed it directly on them, I did notice an exponential increase in dead roaches in the days followed to no roaches till now. Now not only I don't see any roaches in my apartment, but also not any other bugs. So to answer your question from my experience I'm confident that it will get rid of black widow spiders possibly by both ways of contact.

While the product will control a wide variety of spiders, they wil lnot die immediately. Once they come into contact with the product, the product is absorbed into the spiders and insects and they should die within a few hours.

I do not know. It is very effective on spiders and lady bugs. I would be careful about human contact with this chemical

I suggest you do a web search on diatomaceous earth. Once you understand how it works, you then can decide if you want to try it. I can say it was very effective on fleas and spiders.

I think it would. I have mine for a spider. Contact Scales 'N Tails North at (303) 450-6169. They are great. Thanks
