    Default SPIDERS !! Just in time for Halloween....

    I keep my car in the driveway covered a good portion of the time. I find that spiders
    and the webs get tangled all over the undercarriage after just a few weeks.
    I'm constantly taking a broom or brush to the underside to keep them at bay.

    Is there some sort magic stuff i can put in a pan and slide it under the car that
    will repel them and at least help to keep this creepy crawler off my miata ?

    lots of trees, maybe combat it at the source - the yard ?

    Some guys at work told me that moth balls on a pan will thwart the pests off and out from under your car....

    At least the spiders will get some new scenery.

    Let us know how the mothballs work.

    Isn't putting some of that in the gas tank increase the MPG too?

    When you collect the moth balls, how do you hold their little legs?
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    I'm so glad I didn't go there.
