that gave me nasty shivers down my spine!!
i dont catch the spiders in this house, i get mother too :D
xx
Hubby/cat/small child gets rid of our spiders.
Anyone but me!
Those 8 legged beasties give me the heebie jeebies:roll:
I cant even manage to deal with the ones that are trapped in the bath...
lol the big feardie.
That's brilliant!
It reminds me of when I was little, we had a massive spider in the house which Mum caught in an icecream container and left outside near the front door, to let the spider "find its own way home". My dad came home late, in the dark, and we were all woken up by him shrieking. He'd stepped in the container, the spider had shot up his trousers and he was hysterical.
He's never, to this day, lived it down. :lol:
the best way to deal with them is blow torch or stand on them ............lol ;)
I bought myself one of these. It's a great wee thing. :)
My cat eats them so spiders are no problem in our house ;)
I've got one of those but it's only good for fairly large spiders, not teeny ones, and they can escape if the window isn't open ready.Quote:

We have a device we call the arachnid lighsaber!! A bit like Shabbychics but very much like a lightsaber (goes down well in our house). Very handy if you are as scared of them as I am, as you don't have to get too close. Now I need something to suck the slugs of my cat after he has been in the garden hahaha
I scoop them up in my hands and blow them out the door. I may sound weird but I love the feel of them crawling over my hands!! Gardeners friends and they DO NOT crawl up the waste pipe to end up in your bath and die if you flush them down.
The Loafer
Unless they are black widows (we get those here and they particularly like my garage!) I leave them alone. They eat ants, after all!
