Ellybum Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 cheers, i will attempt the hairspray technique and see if it works.. No please dont! They're really quite harmless - in fact, they're really rather helpful around the house, especially in the Summer months when there are lots of flys. The hairspray method is quite cruel. Why not try the glass and card method, as mentioned on here previously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormy Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Well, after getting home about half an hour ago from a night shift at work, I was greeted in my bedroom by a big black thing which was so big that at first I thought it was my wallet. I am ashamed to say that I am terrified of spiders (only the big black hunter ones, the rest I can handle....just...) and have had to take refuge in the living room until my wonderful saviour -our lass- gets up at 6 and removes it for me. I can totally understand the stories others have written about them, and it is quite reassuring to know that I am not the only wuss in town! I have just bought one of those spider repellent thingys which were recommended on a previous page as this is probably just the start of spider season!

TrashyBook Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'm irrationally terrified of spiders, and dread even catching a glimpse of a picture of one. I once read about a woman who had one in her car, but then lost it. She ended up selling the car as she couldn't bear the thought of a spider lurking somewhere! And the thing was, I read that, and found it an entirely reasonable reaction Maybe we should organise a Sheffield Forum trip: http://www.zsl.org/zsl-london-zoo//news/scared-of-spiders,20,NS.html (safe to click for arachnophobes, trust me) I don't really want to learn to love them, just to be able to cope with seeing them without freaking out and hyperventilating!
