How to prevent spiders from dropping from ceiling onto bed at night?

Question

Spiders keep dropping from the ceiling onto my bed at night. They tend to land near my face which isn't cool. Last night one dropped on my bed just as I was about to sleep. WTF. I mean a spider on the floor is bad enough, but for them to be aiming for your face while you sleep. That's just wrong. What can I do to prevent spiders from dropping from my ceiling at night? Where are they coming from? Air duct?

Answer 5

Well I would either.. vacuum the ceiling each night.. or get one of those things they use in the tropical jungles. It's like a white netting.. you can staple it to the top of your headboard or even higher and then loop it through eyelets in the ceiling at the other side. That is why they have those things so creepy crawlers don't come down from the ceiling the side netting is to stop mosquitoes which doesn't seem to be your problem.

Answer 6

get a couple of medium sized scorpions and let them run loose in your house. they will eat the spiders.
