Spiders
« on: 01 October 2007, 22:34:15 »

Why are there so many of the horrid things in my house - I hate them  >:(

I tend to watch TV in the dark and the little b@stards scuttle across the floor at night.

Killed 4 in the last 3 days - all huge, but I've trapped one in a glass tonight as it's TOO BIG to squish. :'(

I'd rather have a mouse ::)

You should see my garage!

When I was building the Westfied I spent a lot of time lying under it riveting things together. On one occasion a spider ran past my ear and it was so big I heard its' footsteps :o

I don't mind them myself, but SWMBO freaks ::)

Sounds like you need a cat, TD.   ;D

Ours will get rid of mice PDQ. Spiders she has a play with. If they're small enough she eats them. Otherwise, you figure out what's going on when she starts scuttling around and roots them out, then out with the size 11's.

Spiders are rather helpful. believe it or not. They catch and dispose of flies, that as we all know pass disease, and I understand their webs can be used to help open wounds heal. If you spread a web over the wound, it provides an open matrix for the red blood cells to form on, and hence scab over. Next time your on a deserted island with no Elastoplast, remember that! :y

But they make a mess on the carpet when you hit them with something hard and cause trouble when you leave them for the wife to clean up the next morning ;)

Who?....Me?.... It has been said before.

He's currently a permanent fixture on my desk. I still jump occasionally when I walk into my office.  ;D ;D You can imagine what others think.  ::)

I'll take him away if you like.  :)

I have decided they are stupid though.  When you shout "don't move - while I get something to hit you with" they freeze.  I think they hate themselves too  :y
