Icon22 Spider wrangling

Comment: I have recently heard a number of rumors about how to get rid of
household spiders including hedge apples (osage oranges), horse chestnuts,
and tea oil, etc. Also I received an e-mail recently that claimed the
spider trainer from the movie arachnophobia used Lemon Pledge to wrangle
them. Are there any truths to these claims?
