Wolf spiders camping in my house plants?

I put the house plants out for the summer, now the wolf spiders have built large house like webs in them. How do I get them nasty creatures outta my plants?

If you spray your plants with white distilled vinegar, your spider problem will be gone in a flash. They hate it! Also it's non-toxic, so it won't hurt your plants. Take care!
Reply:You have to dig them out by hand. Any pest spray will kill your plants. We get wolf spiders floating in our pool every once in a while.
Reply:i would simply call home depot and get some professional help.
Reply:I have had success using Sevin Dust. It doesn't harm the plant and the spiders will go away. Aren't wolf spider just hideous looking? They enjoy the soil I think.
Reply:Wolf Spiders don't spin webs! They spin egg sacks but not webs. Wolf spiders are nomads who spend their lives wandering. The mommies carry their babies around on their back. Wolf spiders are harmless to humans unless you turn out to be allergic.



Maybe they're funnel weaver spiders.



Try mixing dishwashing liquid with water and dousing them. Ordinary household insect sprays should kill them.
Reply:You can use an insecticidal spray that is made for fruits and vegetables for up to 24 hours before consumption. It will not hurt the plants and will give a quick knock-down on the spiders without leaving any residue.
Reply:Squish them one at a time. Or buy some plant safe spider killer (like Rose spider killer).
Reply:burn the plant as fast as ucan i hate spiders
