Outdoor spider solutions/treatment

Good afternoon outdoor board,
I come in peace looking for advice on how to deal with our outdoor spider infestation. We live in a rural subdivision and our house is by some woods and on a pond. We have a high valted ceiling in our upstairs porch, and wood rafters in the downstairs porches. This obviously feeds the problem because the spiders have a lot of corners to spin their disgusting webs. Currently we have a bug guy that sprays inside and outside once a month, and intermittently spray myself. I use 25.1% bifren, but I dilute it to 4oz for 2 gallons of spray. It helps for a couple of days I guess but then the little shits come roaring back. ANY tricks, homemade remedies, other pesticides, really any other advice would be greatly appreciated.

You think it works better than bifren?

Demon WP has worked really well. Can also use permethrin if you are on a budget.

So far we have:
Bifen
demon WP
Suspend
Any else have success with these or any other products? Again we are talking outdoors on the porches.

I hate spiders too so I won't make fun of you. The fact you have a professional pest control service and you personally supplement it on your own, and you still have a problem, I suggest you change pest control companies.

Probably right. Gonna try and get it under control on my own for now.

How has that worked out in the other aspects of your life?

Permethrin has worked great for me on spiders and ants. I order it off of Amazon. I also use TalStar.

This is hands down the most amazing insect control product I have ever used. I started using it due to swarms of house flies on my porch. A friend in the cattle business told me how well it worked. I could literally sit on my porch, watch a fly land and die within seconds of eating it. Flies that bang the dead corpses would also die.
A spider comes along and eats the dead bodies, yep... he now dead too. The toads that live on the porch eat all the war victims at night and it doesn't hurt them a bit. If it has a spine this stuff doesn't kill it but everything else dies.
Works wonders on wasps too. We have a metal roof and the wasps nest inside where wasp spray cannot reach. I spray a bit of this stuff around the entrance and every last one of them bites the dust.
The spray remains active until it is all consumed or is washed away by rain. I just spray a little once a week and enjoy my porch without insects driving me mad.
I swear I do not work for Bayer

I only use Demon and Permethrin. Both are great no issues

I use termidor sc. It kills ants, wasp, yellow jackets, spiders, ticks, termites, roaches. Just let it dry and you and the pets are good to go. I usually spray 2 times a year
