where can I find Horse Chestnut oil?

[justwonderinhun]

Hi, I understand that conkers are a very good deterent for spiders. Until such time that the conkers start to fall from the trees, I would like to try Horse Chestnut oil. I have been searching online suppliers, so far with no luck.
Any suggestions would be very welcome! Many thanks.

Hiya

I seem to recall that Kleeneze did a Horse Chestnut oil. As ever, I haven't got a catalogue lying around to check this!

Not sure about the oil, but I use conkers to keep away moths and have done for years, my great grandmother always had them in her linen drawer, and it has just been a 'family thing' maybe thats why I do not have many spiders - 'cos it sure isn't because I do housework!

Thank you so much for the replies. I already have the betterware "spider stop" spray. I've ordered some more of it today, it's down to £3.99 a bottle at the moment.
Once September comes around, there will be plenty of conkers. I have been told to make a hole in each conker, and then place them on window sills, near doorways, and in corners of rooms. Apparently spiders hate the smell of chestnut, and won't go near it. My teenage daughter is severely phobic of them, she hates the summer as there are always so many around.
I'm still looking for the oil, anything is worth a try.
