I like the moth ball idea, but out unit is close enough to the water that we could get runoff into the river, and IIRC, Bifen is pretty bad news for things that live in the river, so I'll try to avoid that one near the water.
Thanks!

Oh.....I put rat bait/poison on the edges of the unit. Get to them before they get to boat. I also started having spiders so would spread a box of moth balls around on floor and all bugs hit the road.......or......pick up some Bifen and spray it on floor and edges of unit. It kills everything but people and pets including spiders, flies, termites, ants and roaches. I get it at farm/ranch supply where its 1/3 the price.
Try Raid Bug Barrier (Deltamethrin). Not quite as bad for the fish. I spray our dock lines with it as well as the bimini, engine compartment, Blower vents, anchor locker, and any other spot I can find that spiders like to hide. It has worked well keeping them under control.
Doesn't smell anywhere near as nasty as Bifen either.
