Go to your county extension service, take the restricted use pesticide
course, get the license, and then you can buy the same stuff the
professionals use.

I've been buying some stuff at HDepot that comes in a small purple
bottle, just a few ounces, and it is supposed to make 2 gallons or so.
I mix it with maybe 1.4 gallons of water and it seems to work really
well. About $7. I don't seem to have any on hand or I'd tell you the
actual name.

Ortho Home Defense works for me. I live in a heavily wooded area, lots
of Wolf and garden spiders and centapedes. I usually spray the
foundation inside and out. I used Terro Spider Killer inside of my
detached garage.

I wish I remembered what the pro's used before I bought this place. I
had the name but lost it, it was something I could buy without a
license. It killed insects but specifically did not kill the multitude
of lizards. (lizards are good here) I sprayed once in spring and that
whole summer there were hardly any lizards. I used the wrong stuff. :-(
