Hehe thanks for all of the replies! Even the silly ones too! I think I'm going to buy a cat and leave it in the car overnight lol
The bomb thing scares me because I have to put the car in the garage which contains the hive lol. Maybe I should focus on the garage first. I can get a riot shield with a bug bomb and breach the garage via the kitchen door, plant it, make sure the spiders don't defuse and then run before it goes off.
teanza - yellow spiders???? jeeez those are the scariest to me.
just to throw this in the discussion.. the first night the house got "attacked" I was already on the edge from killing like 20 of them. I chased a big brown spider across my room and he went under my door into the kitchen. I followed... When he got under the lip of the cabinets a freaking black widown webbed him, bit him, and pulled him up. There was also another dangling brown spider that already met his maker. At that point I was completely silent, sweating like a wet sponge, and nearly in tears (eyes were watering!!). I hate it!!!!! I always completely freezed up when I see them. It takes me seconds to get a grip which is sometimes tooo long!!!

I've seen this before, here is what you should do.
Watch the car for a little while and try to find the largest spider. Once you have identified the largest one, you will know that he is the leader. Do NOT kill this spider. However, you need to capture this leader and rough him up a bit. Just berate him for a while and push him around. Then break one of his legs and put him back into the car. This will demonstrate to him and all the other spiders that you are not a man to be trifled with. They will move on....they will definitely move on.

i was ordering fast food at the drive thru one time, and on the phone at the same time....As i'm ordering, i see something barely moving from the corner of the left eye as im looking out the window, but didnt really pay attention to it. After i ordered and got off the phone, i started to pull forward and turn the car to the left. I turned my head to the left and on the rubber area of where the hardtop/window meets, theres a freakin huge ass spider about hte size of a quarter crawling up...I almost curbed my wheels as I tried to put as much distance away from the spider, going to the passenger side and pulled the car to the right as a result...I got out of the car through the passenger side and killed it....I wonder what the car behind me was thinking.....

OP: where do you live? The only place in the USA that comes close to the amount if insect problems you are describing is southeast Texas where I lived for 8 years as a kid. We had spiders, roaches, snakes and freaking scorpions IN the house and had to have it exterminated quarterly!

Jlude- I'm in north alabama. Humid and hot right now. Perfect reason for them to try to get inside of things.. Holy crap!! I couldn't even imagine scorpions in the house, although despite their venom , they don't give me the shivers like the 8 legged buggers.

youll freeze em out.... or just search around the car see where they are...spiders are'nt communal..they may just be in mating season and on the move... dont worry theyll leave..just keep the top up
