    On the porch outside my house there are lots of spider webs and cobwebs on the wall and celling of the porch, some are burried in the corners and are difficult to get at is there any way of getting rid of them?

    No joke but the hover could be an option

    im guessing you are looking for a more permanent solution

    havent got one im afraid a google reveals the following

    # Spiders like to hide, and they like to be left alone. This means, eliminate hiding places: no more laundry piles and stacks of boxes and make sure you clean frequently.


    # Did you know spiders like cardboard? Well they do! So get rid of yours.


    # Spiders have natural enemies like cats, birds, frogs, and ladybugs. Perhaps one of these creatures is better suited for your home.


    # Here's an interesting tidbit: spiders hate furniture polish. Go forth and spray!


    # Think tiny: cracks in walls, spaces under doors and between screens and windows are perfect entryways for our favorite eight-legged friends. Seal spaces in the foundation, and around floorboards, windows and doors.



    # Shrubs or plants that grow close to the outside of your home also provide a good home for spiders, so try to keep any greenery trimmed neatly and off the exterior walls of the house.


    # When rains are heavy or the temperature is particularly warm, spiders head inside. They prefer cool, dry places. You can't change the weather, but you can be prepared.


    vacuum, vacuum, vacuum.
