CONKERS - KEEPING THE SPIDERS AND MOTHS AWAY

​To receive updates of our latest TOP LISTS, follow us on Facebook or Instagram or Twitter​
Picture
Conkers appear around the same time that it is Spider Season when all the really big spiders with really long legs, like to come inside your house. It is said that placing conkers on your windowsill can deter spiders. Apparently the conkers release some sort of chemical that spiders do not care for so they will avoid going near them. This has never been proven, but if it makes you feel better then go for it! It is also said that moths do not care for conkers so it might be worth placing some in your cupboard as a natural moth repellent! You can see our full list here: Top Things To Do With Conkers
