If it’s too late for preventative measures and you’ve spotted pests in your tree, Gabel says your best bet is an insecticide that’s safe to use in your home. Of course, always read and follow the label, he notes. Many insecticides available today contain essential oils that not only smell nice, but are alkaline, and will rid your tree of most pests.
And if you haven’t already dressed your tree up, you can, of course, take it back outside for a shake and spray if necessary. But, Gabel says, the insecticide should definitely do the trick.
There’s nothing like the sight of a gorgeous Christmas tree to get you in the holiday spirit—until you spot a spider in its branches. But have no fear, with a bit of insecticide and a good shake, your tree will be pest-free before the next day on your advent calendar.
