Just been called upstairs to remove a spider from 8 year old daughters bedroom ::) Upstairs are the 18 year old scroat, and my 16 year old stepsons and swmbo and not one of them would go anywhere near it, to remove it. It's tough being a Dad.... ;D ;D ;D

Scoop it up in your hand & tease/terrify them with it before luzzing it out the window. There's a statistic somewhere saying on average we eat 5 spiders in our sleep so you could let them know!!! ;D

It's in our DNA to be frightened.
The year 25,000BC's top Darwin Award winners were all people who were missing the gene for the fear of spiders and snakes. And wasps probably.
By being a good dad/husband/brother/mate you are establishing superiority over millions of years of evolution.
You deserve a whiskey and the adulation of your inferiors. And you can tell them that from me :y ;D ;D

Ohhh...Spiders ..even the word gives me the shivers.
Most men Mr Dusty included not frightened of spiders though. :-* :-* :-*

My first wife sat outside our house one night for 2 1/2 hours till I got home because there was a big spider in the hall ::)

-
I aint sure I like the idea that Guy suggests that we eat them in our sleep.........
Also I aint sure i would want to shift a spider the size of that one in Harry Potter :-?

Why not explain that spiders are helping us by killing nasty flies that spread disease. If you explain things people sometimes understand :y

When i was in my early teens, i picked up a big House Spider with my index finger & thumb & the bugger bit me, left me with a slight tingling & a very tiny puncture mark. So be carefull, because they can bite ;)

no, no, no..........don't kill spiders, they're goodies not baddies! ::)
According to a David Attenborough documentary on spiders I watched a couple of years ago, if every single spider on the planet were to die, mankind would not survive more than approx. 8 weeks. :o Apparently its all down to keeping insects and pests such as flies, mozzies etc. under control by feeding on them. Without the spiders to do this, we would be wiped out by plagues and illnesses spread by insects. :-?

Caught a whopper running across our floor the other day.
So big in fact ...when I put a glass over the top of it to catch it.....two of it's legs got trapped under the rim.....poor little sod.....can only run in circles now. :D ;D :y :y :y
-
I used to be terrified of them, but worked really hard to get over such an irrational fear.
Don't think i will ever be able to handle a spider but i can remove them without screaming for help!
Find the hoover on its longest extension useful! ;D
Jimbob discovered a nest of HUGE spiders in our back garden. He sprayed them with GT85 and set fire to it! Yuck!

My other half hates spider's but my 6 year old daughter is not. Example came in the house to find the wife screaming because the little one was holding a spider up to her to hold.
She wasn't impressed and yes I got it in the neck. :y
