Help - spider repellant

[Catty1]

A friend of mine has a live-in job where she keeps an eye on an elderly man. She has a whole downstairs to herself, which is finished with bedroom and all, and the kitchen is upstairs where she makes meals for her 93-year-old client.

She has about 17 spider bites on her. The only thing she could find while researching was to cover herself in a lather of soap and teatree oil. It smells pretty strong!

Does anyone here know of anything else she could use? She is sensitive to cleaning chemicals, so regular pesticides and repellents may not work.

Thanks for any ideas! :)

Hmmmmm....I don't know if there would be anything other than a repellent that would work.
What about getting rid of the spiders ???? Like some pest control company.
