Natural ways

Spiders hate the smell of various essential oils and we can use them as a spray to get rid of them. Oils like peppermint oil, lemon oil, eucalyptus oil, lemon oil, cedar wood and they also hate vinegar. For making spray you can use any of these oils with vinegar and simply spray it on your car and car mirror. This will keep spiders away from your car. 

Other methods

Don’t leave your car windows open as these spiders and creepy crawlies can get through by these windows. Don’t leave them open even if you are parking in your own garage.

Behind the side mirrors of the car is one of the top holes for spiders. These are the places which one can always miss while washing the car. Keep checking these holes and wash them properly so that a spider can’t hide over there.

Surface sprays also help to get rid of spiders. Use surface sprays behind mirrors and in the tire arches to keep spiders away.

In the winter season, people usually don’t wash their cars and leave them aside. This helps spiders to hide in the mirror holes and tire arches. You should keep washing your car properly once a week to keep them away.

Scientists have shown that vibrations attract spiders to your car. So it’s recommended not to leave the engine idling for too long.
