Default sonic bug/spider control?

Hello,

We have large double workshop/garage at the bottom of the garden. But gets lots of spiders. So we dont use it and its a waste.

Ive tried Morton spray stuff, can and professional outdoor stuff. But doesnt seam to work.

Also get a few spiders in the house.

Well Morton stuff not working so well, but was at bunning last night and noticed these plug in sonic bug/spider control.
Said its something to do with sound waves I think. Said keeps away bugs, spiders,ants, mice etc.

Do these things work? Mainly to keep away spiders

I know it does not help you there but we have one here in the UK like that to keep the cats away and it is not because we don't like cats we do, always had cats its just that all the others seem to like one spot of the garden to empty in(if you know what i mean), and it works very well, the only thing is all the younger children complain they can here the sound waves of it and hurts there ears.

I've seen various test reports on these things over the years and not one has said they can verify the claims. Ultrasonic emitters do appear effective for mammals, but mozzies?.....

Bought one from Aldi as we were getting ants in the kitchen.

I've seen one ant in the kitchen since.

Must work!
