Interior Bug Spray

Do any of you spray the inside of your trailer with bug spray? Would like to do mine but not sure what to use. Anybody use the home inside spray from Home Depot or Lowes? If so what brand? Any staining of woodwork or carpet? Effective? I can spray it and leave for a couple of days so fumes are not a problem. No pets to worry about either. Spiders are my main target. I sprat the outside regularly where ever the trailer touches the ground. I do not have a bad problem now just looking to do preventative maintenance.

We use Home Defense once a month and load the place up with Bounce sheets (drawers, cupboards, etc.) No problem so far!

I don't know how you may do it, but if you can get some concentrated insect spray from a professional exterminator (Terminix, Orkin,etc.) it will work better than anything. It is almost non-toxic (except for a concentrated application to either fish or birds), it goes a long way because you mix it with water, it has virtually no odor and it doesn't stain.
Another big advantage over household products is that it leaves a fine coating behind which keeps killing insects for 3 or more months on an exterior application and even longer for interior applications, which, to my knowledge, household products do not.
I am a licensed exterminator and can buy it directly, but you may be able to talk an exterminator into selling/giving you a bottle.
Good luck with this.
