Combating the sticky strands is not that tough, but most people don’t want to get up close and personal with spider graveyards. Luckily, getting rid of cobwebs can be done with some distance between you and the abandoned critter homes.
The best spider web cleaner is something you already use—your trusty vacuum cleaner. Attack the corners of ceilings and any other nooks and crannies, especially around windows and doors. Soft dusters with long handles work well, too—plus, using an extension will keep you off wobbly chairs as you strain to reach the ceiling. You can also get creative and attach an old sock or cleaning cloth to the end of a broom or yardstick and swipe away any webs lurking in the corners.
If cobwebs have found their way onto curtains or other fabric, follow the vacuum method and use a lint roller to pick up those remaining sticky strands. Always wash the fabric if you are able to—you don’t want spider leftovers on your old winter coat, right?
How to Get Rid of Spider Webs
Windows are one of spiders’ favorite ways to get into your home. After getting rid of your corner cobwebs, check out your windows. There’s a good chance you’ll find webs with and without spiders. Use your vacuum’s crevice tool to suck up whatever webs you can. Then grab a spray bottle of water or a hose.
Spiders often make webs in the corners of windows, between screens and windows and in other common hiding places. Spray down the window and screen from the inside with your water bottle. If you’re using a water hose, use the spray nozzle and soak the window and screen from the outside.
By spraying your windows, you get rid of more spider webs and send any spiders still hiding out on their way. Clean the window and wipe down screens with a cloth to remove any remaining residue from the spider webs.
