Natural spider repellents that are safe for finches

I've been finding some fairly big spiders in my bedroom and I want to ask all of you if you know of any natural repellents that would be safe for my babies? I've found quite a few different ones but the require the use of essential oils and I heard that those aren't safe to use around birds.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use?
Thanks!

This is not a natural insecticide, but I use Avian Insect Liquidator made by Vetafarm. It is very safe for birds, as it can be sprayed directly on the bird, even on nests.

I have some of that. Would it work to repel spiders by spraying it on baseboards and around windows? I'd probably have to cover my aquarium when spraying, just in case.
If the answer is yes than I might invest in the concentrated form so I can mix it up whenever I need it.
