Get the hedge apples if you can find them. When I was a teen I built a bedroom in our basement and the thing was always full of spiders as well as the small bathroom that was down there. I got some of those hedge apples and after a few days I never saw another in the years I stayed there.

I'd put one under each seat and in the hatch behind the rear speaker covers on each side. Leave them there for about a week and I really think that'll take care of your problem.

I never would have believed those hedge apples work if I didn't see it with my own eyes.

It used to be literally every time I'd sit down on the thone there would be one or more spiders camped out under it. I put one of those under there and never saw another one anywhere in that bathroom. Honestly I can't ever remember seeing one in the whole basement after got those things.

Hedge apples can be hard to find though. I had got them from my neighbor back then.

Another thing that I heard works great but I never tried is kerosene. Clean all your windows with that and it will evaporate without doing any damage or leaving any smell but the residue is a great spider repellant. I don't know if it will hurt tint so you might want to check on that before you try it on a tinted window. Or, you could just set a few bowls of kerosene in there and let it sit over night with the windows cracked a little and I'd think that would drive them out.

Stop by a pest control company and let them "fog it" with a pesticide.
