schizodoor Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I'm currently in my bedroom cos the mother of all spiders is on the wall in the living room and I'm too scared to go in there till it goes I'm ok with the little ones but the big ones scare me witless. I used to work in a supermarket and one day a box of bananas was opened and a huge spider (tarantula) 'jumped' out The shop cleared in about 1 an a half minutes whilst the bravest of the boys tried to catch it. It was a spider skin Still scared the begeezez out of me though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I have two spider removing devices they are called Billy and Mojo, my cats. There is no easier or more effective way to get rid of them. I also get Daddy longlegs spiders and they eat other spiders so where as you would have a few scuttling around your house you just get one lying in wait.

Paolo Coopio Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 We moved to Beighton last year and couldn't believe how many spiders there were in the house. It had been empty for a few months. Someone told me its because we live near swampy land such as Rother Valley park. Anyhow we still see some but the missus is petrified of the things to the point of screaming the house down - the neighbours must think I beat her or something. She has ordered one of those things you plug in and it ommits a signal which spiders dont like. Anyone ever used one? Anyway, last year in my old house I was woken by a tickling on my face. Half asleep i grabbed something in the palm of my hand and threw it on the floor. It was the biggest spider I have seen in my life scuttling away on the floor.

I've been out and about and come home and its still in the same position except with one leg slightly moved. I'm sat staring at it on the other side of the room wondering how to pack the stuff in here up and move without disturbing it, or whether to just call it a day and start afresh and buy new furniture I've seriously contemplated asking my neighbour to help out but I'm supposed to be an independent woman so guess i'll just go to my bedroom instead untill it moves, then I'll spend the whole time worrying where its gone!!!! I'd put something over it but its up on the wall near the ceiling taunting me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if it moves to somewhere you can't see it while your in the bedroom:o Then later whilst you unsuspectingly settle down to a hot chocolate and a bit of telly..... there it is.....on your face from out of nowhere:gag: :gag: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, if your that worried by it, get one of your neighbours to shift it for you:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
