spiders?

[GoldWithFalmer]

Am big time arachnophobic. Have been all my life

Oh and a tip for you spider haters. If you get yourself a pet tarantula and keep it in a tank, your house will be free of other spiders. I had a tarantula (sadly died a few years back, so theory is tried and tested!) Whats worse?!

That would be better,caged and secure but for all the others roaming freely no ta,my missus loves spiders- i am the pathetic one standing on the coffee table while she removes them with her hands,hence why i had to change to the broom the other night when i threatened to burn the black widow,she went ballistic and nearly killed me over it.

But what if you accidentally knock it over or one day don't close the tank properly? Then you're in a whole WORLD of trouble.

That reminds me of when my cat managed to get the lid off. I came into the room and he was there at the tank, lid off spider gone. It took ages to find the thing. He had got behind a cupboard door. Only day I can honestly say I was a bit scared of finding a spider as didnt know how he would react after being tormented by the cat! He was fine by the way! Cat was itching his eyes loads afterwards so probably got some spider hairs flicked at him when he tried to get hold of the spider.

Love spiders, but wouldn't want to share a room with one that could kill me. Been there, done that.

I have an adopted spider in my car and one in my bedroom to keep the flies at bay.

I have loads in my flat. Love them. If you're in the UK you really shouldnt be scared of them. Even the so called false widow's bite would only affect about 1% of people. Man up.

Years ago, a friend said that he was scared of flying in case there was a bomb on the plane, however, he worked out that the odds of being on a plane with a bomb on it was about 5000000-1. so then he looked up the odds of a plane having two bombs on it and that was something like 250000000-1 so his solution was to suggest bringing his own personal bomb onboard as it was less risky. But, your own bomb/tarantula could still kill you.

Thanks to this recent damp weather there seems to have been a massive explosion in the slug population. I have found two very unwelcome slugs sliding up my kitchen walls recently. Sod the spiders, get the salt out!

Strangely hypnotic.

 

[Don Quixote]

I like them

 

[Max Paper]

Turn me into a quivering wreck, they scare the shit out of me I can't even do the gardening (I pay someone else)
However, stick a snake on my pillow and I'll sleep like a baby!

 

[Return of the Rev]

killed one yesterday with a tennis ball as it was in the corner, hate them more than flies in the house

I think you and the spiders are on the same side

 

[glasfryn]

I don't know why but we had loads in the house in Wales and even here we have a few who are big enough to wear clogs, the cats used to love killing them but now they are tolerated,Spencer the large one who lives in the lounge is always running across the floor and Lu-Lu just watches him with distain rather than pulling his legs off and watching him die ........................progress in her obsession to rule the world.

 

[NickBHAFC18]

I stick them under a glass jar and watch them fight...the strongest gets to live in the house. Simple.
