OMG THERE WAS A SPIDER IN MY CAR

[IronFusion]

I was up in the mountains in October, and took my recycling in the car to drop off on the way home. One of those large, fat woodsy spiders caught a ride, and later that week the bugger crawled over the headrest, and got caught in my hair (lots of hair in a bun). I flipped. It was like being carjacked at gunpoint and the gunman tells you to just drive. I was ready to crash the car just to get that spider.

To the OP's question about something to repel them: Get some cedar oil, dab it on a cotton swab, and then apply it on fabric out of sight (it may stain) in spread out areas. If you don't mind the smell, dab it on a cotton ball or two, and leave on under your seat and in the trunk. Spiders and most other bugs cat cedar oil. Non toxic, and it lasts a fair amount of time.

That poor CR-X… it definitely belongs to the spiders now!

We had a discussion about spiders in our Ridgelines several years ago. Perhaps spiders are an unadvertised bonus with Hondas.

In 2011, Mazda recalled tens of thousands of cars for a spider problem.

There was a small one outside near the moonroof, I thought I flicked it away...

Then after getting dinner the spider was right above the drivers door, and quickly climbed down into the space between the window and the door lol.

The little asshole survived a 15-mile highway trip on the roof!
