Sadico 1 Posted August 19, 2002 I don't mind spiders (little harmless ones, i would shit my pants if i find a black widow at home) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingBeast 0 Posted August 19, 2002 I dont really mind the little ones, and poisonous spiders are definately no concern in the United Kingdom. its jsut the big bastard ones like in the photo i posted that i hate the most. If i see a spider in my room (say at night) as big as that, I wont go to bed until ive turned my room upside down, found it and killed it with much shouting swearing and repeating squishing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackDeath-CFH 1 Posted August 19, 2002 i live in vegas, and if you know is a breeding ground for black widows and brown recluses.was watching the news a few days ago where they found a new spider (forget the name) but if it bites you the place where it bit you starts to deteriorate (however you spell it =/ ) but yes, i hate those god damn things.

KingBeast 0 Posted August 19, 2002 I shot it AND squished it with the butt of my gun It was quite a hunt, perhaps I will tell you about it in a pub when I am an old man. Kind of like a war story Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tex -USMC- 0 Posted August 19, 2002 I cant stand the little fuckers. I wont go out of my way to kill em because they are really great insect control, but woe betide the spider that uses my arm as a shortcut to the nightstand when I am sleeping *smack* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Renagade 0 Posted August 20, 2002 They do a good job of getting rid of other more annoying pest though so usually if i find a spider bugging me it gets reloacted. Wasps on the other hand are a different story altogether. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted August 20, 2002 Lol. you are all cowards! Our house is built of wood and glass. Now we dont live in a small shelter. Actually our house is voted to be the most modern and beautiful house of our state (NRW). In the first few years after construction any insect would die after a few hours. But the house got older and the impregnation got less strong. And now we find huge spider now and then in our cellar and other rooms (our rooms are up to 7 metres high). Those spiders are huge. They would make all of you freak. I usually take an old deo-spray and a lighter and then I burn them crispy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tex -USMC- 0 Posted August 20, 2002 Hehe, I never said I jump up on a chair and start screaming when I see a spider, its just that the brown recluse, if you havent heard of it, is one of the more toxic spiders in North America. Also, the little fuckers are small, and you usually never see em until they are too close for comfort. Luckily, usually the only ones that get in the house are garden variety house spiders. Nothing to fear from them, but like I said, if they crawl across me while Im trying to sleep, Im gonna smash em  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
