My husband even forced me to watch the movie Arachnophobia once while we were dating, all the while telling me "it's not real, it's just a movie..." Nothing gets my adrenaline pounding like a spider crawling across the floor towards me...

Would you believe the Significant Other is the one who gets queasy when he sees a spider? I always tell him to "man up" and carry it outside. No need to kill one of God's living creatures when it can be set free! He turns pale but usually complies! :)Bellahttp://gypsyroxylee.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-29516205992850254922012-01-13T01:35:34.918-07:002012-01-13T01:35:34.918-07:00You should see the ones in Iraq They are huge lobs...You should see the ones in Iraq They are huge lobster sized lol<br />I thought Daddy long legs was a nice spider but I read they bite too. I have never been bit by one but they are my favorite spider. They don't look scary at all.<br />I loved playing with spiders I'd give them two live flies on different sides of the web and watched their behavior. They clearly want to catch the both of them and the flies want to get away. lolA Lady's Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11973102350411443282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-81405854564842084862012-01-12T16:26:15.916-07:002012-01-12T16:26:15.916-07:00I once leaned over and plucked a green spider off ...I once leaned over and plucked a green spider off my sister's bare leg. She was driving. On an interstate in heavy traffic. In the mountains. "What was that about?" she asked. I told her I'd taken a spider off her leg. "You just saved the lives of the passengers in this car." I knew I had.Joanne Noragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834682329952369721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-55543512324484066012012-01-12T15:15:58.001-07:002012-01-12T15:15:58.001-07:00Ok, this was cute!

I met one really big Black Widow at eye level one day when taking out the laundry to our wash room. I screamed so loud that I scared it and then my poor husband had to try and find out where to spray. <br />Thanks for the chuckle; I think. Just so it didn't cause a dream of spiders.LeAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107717294803352571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-5914225679737695612012-01-12T12:56:56.605-07:002012-01-12T12:56:56.605-07:00"Persnickety-ness" lol.

Except for the cob webs they leave behind, I actually like spiders in my house - they eat all those really nasty bugs like dust mites and creepy-crawlers.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17044224027343776064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-67053665481875544242012-01-12T08:44:42.010-07:002012-01-12T08:44:42.010-07:00As long as a spider is beyond my reach it is free ...As long as a spider is beyond my reach it is free to live in harmony and peace..once it comes within swatting range..well..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
