But if you've got a phobia of the eight-legged creepy crawlies then no fear, because a woman named Kate has shared her genius trick to get rid of them once and for all.<\/p>\n
And all you need is a tub of 89p Vapour Rub.<\/p>\n
Kate took to TikTok (@plant.based.kate) and explains: "If like me you're terrified of spiders – and it is the season for those big thick spiders to try and come into the house – get some Vapour Rub or Olbas oil<\/span> and pop it on your windowsills and door frames.<\/p>\n "Spiders have little taste buds in their feet and they hate mint so when they taste the mint, they won't come in."<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n She adds: "It's a really ethical way to stop spiders from getting in your house."<\/p>\n The video has since gone viral, garnering a whopping 774k views and several comments from social media users.<\/p>\n FABULOUS FIVER: SPEND \u00a35 AND GET A \u00a325 WELCOME BONUS<\/strong><\/p>\n "It works, also they hate lavender," wrote one.<\/p>\n A second quipped: "I slap this all about myself at bedtime.
