Spider webs in my house seem to pop up overnight. And they're a real bane to get rid of when they're up in the ceiling corner.

to reduce this cobb business, and also make the room a little different decoratively, plaster all the cieling corners (2-sided and 3-sided) of every room into a smooth concave surface (about 6 inches out)...making the room sort of dome-y.

This wont totally eliminate spiders from setting up shop, but just give them a hard time trying, promping them to look elsewhere.

       I'm not sure why spiders would set up home in a corner anyway. it seems a pretty pointless place for a fly to fly to.   

       curved covings are pretty much baked and you can design your own pretty easily.

       Do they come in when it's damp or raining out?
