People are rushing to their nearest Aldi to get their hands on a spider repellent spray that’s said to work wonders.
The Zero In Spider Repellent Spray is a natural, poison-free, welfare-friendly spider deterrent that looks to be ideal for anyone keen to keep the spiders away from their home as the temperature drops and the wet weather arrives this autumn and winter.
According to a description for the popular product, the Zero In Spider Repellent Spray contains mint – which works to repel spiders without harm.
The natural mint formula is supplied in a handy trigger bottle, meaning it’s ready to spray around windows and doors in the home to create a natural barrier against spiders and other crawling insects.
It’s also suitable for use around children or pets as it contains no poisons or chemicals.

Once applied in a problem area, the spray dries to leave a mint barrier around household entry points that works to repel insects, and it’s advised that you re-apply in target areas after cleaning or every two / three weeks to maintain effectiveness.
And it’s only £3.99 from Aldi.

A post spreading word of the affordable price of the spider repellent spray was shared with money-savvy shoppers on the popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK page on Facebook, with thousands of people seeming keen to try it out.
The post racked up a whopping 16,000 comments from eager shoppers.
“I had a big one run at me not once but twice on my bed [and] after we found it, we then pulled the whole room apart looking for more. I’m still waking up… I’m normally okay with spiders, but this one was too big and too fast [so I] will definitely be looking for this spray,” one person commented.

Another added: “I have a very large spider repellant spray [and it’s] worth its weight in gold.”

There’s a FREE Children in Need event coming to MediaCityUK
Thomas Melia
An all-new and completely free to enjoy Children in Need event is making its way to MediaCityUK later this November, and it’s bringing along some iconic brands.
Everyone’s favourite yellow bear is returning to Manchester to take over MediaCityUK and rename it Pudsey’s Piazza for one night only.
Pudsey Bear is heading down to MediaCityUK and he’s bringing all the best activities, games, famous food, live music and more for four hours of FREE family-oriented fun.
You can expect to see Pudsey and the team alongside a whole host of celebrities, brand partners and lots of friends when Children in Need hosts its celebration later this November.
Some of the brands which have been announced include staple high street bakery Greggs, a collaboration between McDonald’s and its sports counterpart, Fun Football UK.

Also joining the bill is viral TikTok potato-loving duo Spud Bros, who will be serving up their famed jacket potatoes with an array of fillings to choose from inside their recognisable big red van.
Greggs will be bringing a huge double-decker bus to Pudsey’s Piazza at MediaCityUK with treats on hand throughout this evening celebration, as well as interactive games for you to play.
You’ll also be able to catch a glimpse of a replica Red Arrows jet, which will be situated on the piazza all night long courtesy of aerial experts Royal Air Force.
If that wasn’t enough for you, your night will be soundtracked by the one and only viral nomad music maker DJ AG, who’ll be playing out tunes as part of a charity livestream at the bandstand.
MediaCityUK is the home of BBC Children in Need, so it’s only fitting that Pudsey would throw one of his biggest parties yet right here in Greater Manchester.
Pudsey and his friends are transforming MediaCityUK into Pudsey’s Piazza on Friday, 14 November from 4pm to 8pm, and they’re encouraging anyone to come along, especially since it’s FREE.
