    Spiders won’t eliminate your bug problem either. The presence of predators in an environment doesn’t imply all of their prey will soon go extinct.

    You eliminate bugs by preventing their entry, reducing or removing their food and water sources, and/or interrupting or preventing their mating cycles. Or occasionally deploying something that kills everything in an area (though if you don’t also do the other steps above, they’ll eventually return).
