Oh no, here we go again! 😫 

I was thinking about you the other day Boyfriday when a huge spider ran across  my living room floor.  Luckily O/H was in and he dealt with it.

I currently have a massive specimen trundling around my house. Legs like 4 rugby players glued together ……. and it can't half shift. Got a bit attached actually, so I've given it a name  "Bus width" (8 feet).

They used to be camouflaged on the carpet but now we have hard floors they stick out a mile  and can get some speed up.

I chuck them in the pond for the fish

They say if you put conkers  in each room  it’s sopposed to keep them away

Now THAT made me chuckle.   (Apart from chucking them into the fish pond.!!)

 

House spiders are harmless and are a good way to keep 'Flying insects' like Flies under control.

 

An old saying..."If you want to live and Thrive, leave the spider alive...

No - it’s;

 

”If you want to live and thrive, purchase a flamethrower from the internet and obliterate the room the spider is in. Add petrol”

That's the one.

Don’t mind the spiders, it’s the crafty moths I can’t stand. They lull you into a false sense of security by playing dead and then fluttering round like mad when you try and move them

A lot of people do say that, just like a lot of people say that crystals have healing properties.

Neither are true though.

I swear by the conker theory, my late wife and I used to go out collecting conkers.. she would spread them all round the house, never saw a spider.. Don"t bother now and the spiders are back, not that it bothers me.. 

Don"t these spider repellents have some sort of Horse Chestnut ingredient in them.
