Insect repellents safe for fishtanks

That wouldn't work very well for killing flies unless you never shower though.

After not showering for about six months I work like human fly-paper. The flies stick to me and are eventually suffocated by my B.O.

To those considering the auto-sprayers, and those who have found them to be no problem with your tanks: Remember certain things will result in more air-borne pollutants getting into your aquariums, particularly an air pump or fan (for evaporation cooling).

Personally I wouldn't go near such things. Being surrounded by poisons all day?

What about:

Flyscreens (you can get some really good designs these days, windows too)

Those electric zappers with a uv light that attracts bugs

I have a daddy long legs spider in every corner of my house. They are most welcome. I remove the old and dusty webs, but generally leave them free to catch bugs.

the old and dusty ones are what makes it a joy to keeping daddy longlegs

I quite like seeing them around as well. It means we are a bit short on white tails.

Thanks for the help guys, I am thinking really hard now, weighing up the pros and cons.

I think though for the sake of my horses, I will have to endure the plague that will eventuate with summer.

Best wishes to all for the Festive Season :bounce: :bounce:

Daddy Long Legs are the only spiders that dont make me scream.
