‘Definitely need’ bargain hunters say and flock to Aldi desperate to nab £4.99 buy that’s perfect for spider season
WITH spider season here, if you want to put a stop to creepy crawlies entering your home then you’ve come to the right place.
Mating season has arrived and unfortunately for those that can’t stand spiders, the eight-legged creatures are now starting to creep into our homes.
You’re sure to notice more of the creatures from mid-August until early October when the arthropods look for a mate before seeking shelter for the winter season.
While the females usually stay put in a sheltered spot, the male creepy crawlies roam around indoors in a desperate attempt to find a mating buddy.
But if you’re amongst those who are petrified by the air-breathing arthropods, fear not, as Aldi have come to the rescue.
Donna Mcelhinney took to social media to show off her latest Aldi Specialbuys, leaving many very impressed.
Posting on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a private Facebook group with 2.5 million members, Donna shared pictures of her middle aisle Aldi finds, and penned: “Omg I definitely need these.
“I’m the absolute most frightened person when any kind of spider catches my eye, even more so now it is that time of the year where they want to take up residence in our homes.”
So if you’re scared of spiders, you’ll be thrilled to see that Aldi is now selling a spider repellent spray for just £4.99, and a spider catcher for only £8.99.
The Zero In spray can be applied to windows, doors or vulnerable areas to create a barrier to deter spiders and stop them coming back.
It is a poison and chemical free formula that is made from natural plant and mint oil extracts and leaves no marks or stains.
Even better, it lasts for up to three weeks.
Meanwhile, the Zero In spider catcher ensures little creatures, including spiders and crane flies, are moved safely from ceilings and corners, without causing them any harm.
It has gentle bristles which open and enclose around the creature without harming them and can reach up to two feet, into those hidden nooks and corners.
