Good morning.

Thank you for allowing me to join.

As a Brit and an expat now living back in the uk, there are so many things I miss about Spain. The main one being MATON insecticide. I cannot buy anything anywhere near as good here.

If anyone is driving back and would bring some box it up and post it to me here in Derbyshire by Hermes for instance obviously I’m willing to pay for everything and of course for your time and trouble. I’d be so grateful. It’s the one in the orange and silver tin. Most cans about 300 or 500 ml. Would want 6 plus.

I know it seems excessive but terrified of spiders and it’s the only stuff that deals with them.

Thank you for reading this.

Hi Maggie

We’re driving out to Spain at the end of September for a three week holiday, if you can wait till our return and you’ve had no other offers, we’d be more than happy to bring you some back 👍😊

Just to add, I too am scared of those 8 legged beasts, I can't begin to tell you of the experiences in England especially at Harvest time, I was a wreck. They were like horses with jockeys!! Being single it was also something I had to deal with on my own, terrified was my usual default position!!

I've been living in Spain for 3 years and apart from the odd little one, about the size of my small finger nail I haven't seen a thing!! So I hope that reassures a little!!

Just to add, snakes, rats, mice, cockroaches bring them on, no issue - just to prove I'm not a total wuss!!!

Hi Kaz

I’m exactly the same, when we lived in Spain no problems but living in the country here (Derbyshire) they’ve started harvesting and my goodness there are some monsters out there and in here if they get the chance.

I hate them, but MATON does the job like no other. Have spent pounds in various spider sprays all rubbish. Can’t wait for my new friends in this forum to bring me some back xxx
