Welocme to springtime!

So can I.  I once had a boyfriend who thought he could cure my arachnophobia by throwing a large spider at me.  He was so wrong......

Definately not the way to go about dealing with a phobia, leaving someone to "Deal" with a situation is best, forcing someone in to the situation is not.

If you read up on the facts about spiders, you will soon see how the few that are dangerous live in other parts of the world and what lives in our homes and garages and sheds are the good guys.

To splat them because your scared is IMHO utter ignorance.

We all know that spiders in this country are (mostly) harmless and actually do a lot of good.  Unfortunately logic doesn't come into it when I see one running across the floor (it's the way they move).  I would never squash one though - I adopt the glass and card technique and put them outside, as far as possible from my house as I'm convinced they have a homing instinct!

I try to catch them to put them outside, but they run away from my hand!  They're more scared of me!

Yes, Pete does seem to be getting bigger!  No fly is out of reach now!

I adopt the hoover technique, one suck and up it goes to live amongst the dust.
