dont let it get too bad...

because it will eventually get inevitable to beat em all..i had the same thing with black widows at my old place..they just kept coming and coming..after awhile they was everywhere..but if you didnt mess with them..they didnt mess with you

thats odd. orb weavers usually stay outside where they can trap more food in their webs.

Windows are closed..
There seems to be small crevices the spider can come in from.
House and window are both old


There are actually weather proof plastic that is used to lower your heating/cooling bills

You might try putting it over your windows to keep the spiders out, it will most likely get the job done

I tried reading about that, but that's like completely sealing your windows (like how basewood is sealed to the edge of the floor/wall)

Caulk around the outside and if that doesn't work you might need new windows.
