Default Anyone ever use dry ice to kill bugs in your car?

I was in the deep south on a little trip this weekend and my friend had a few spider eggs he didn't know about hatch and now they are everywhere.

He wanted to use a fogger, but I thought it would be bad for the leather and plastic. I know on Car Talk on NPR they said a block of dry ice, a tarp, and a few hours should work because of the CO2. I tend to agree with this, but has anyone tried it?

Mods,

If this needs to be moved to Off Topic, I apologize in advance.

Here in Texas, we have tarantulas, black widows and the brown recluse. I've used foggers on many cars with no ill effects on the interior other than occasionally needing to clean the windows. Not liking spiders.
