While browsing the forum, I noticed a - big - spider slowly moving on the wall behind my PC-monitor into view.

Usually , when this happen, I grab a newspaper or such and smash it, if the spider is quite big (2 inches diameter)

This time it was resting on the power-outlet of the computer, so I had no "clear shot " it.

Now it moved onto the computer table, hiding behind the printer, the clever bastard.

While looking around for a better smash-tool, the spider disappeared.
- Where is a Mk32A Jackhammer when you need it ..... -

I took the vacuumcleaner out to scare the thing away, and after that I got back to reading/typing the BF2S Forum, feeling a bit itchy in general.

What would YOU have done ?

unless its a tarantula, black widow, Barn Spider or Brown Recluse,  I'll just smash it with my bare hands. unless I'm feeling the need to make the spider suffer a bit I'll take a few legs off and watch it run around with 5 legs.

When in the Military the sick bastards that had to spit every 5 seconds while using chewing tobacco, we'd catch a spider and make him OD on nicotine.

The most "humane" form of death for a spider i believe is burial at sea, grab a wad of toilet paper, catch the little bastard and send him to the septic tank via toilet.

Crap, man, I think you need to do some house cleaning.  The biggest spiders my house has are little 1/4 inch house spiders.

Spiders are beneficial "pests" . They will eat most other insects and work FOR you lol .
If I find one in the house I collect it on a sheet of paper and toss it down stairs in the basement .
If YOU don't have a basement then toss it in the garage or outside .

Spider facts ( you'll love this ) : You are never more then 6 feet from a spider at all times . During your life time you will eat about 300 spiders in your sleep . You will be bitten by spiders several dozen times a  year and not even know it .

Forget spiders , they are nothing compared to other pests .I ust got into pest control . Since I've been on the job doing low income housing apartments I've seen it all in a short time . One guy moved his refrigerator so I could spray behind it and literally 400 baby cockroaches scattered and climbed up the wall . He also had 2 leaks , one in the kitchen and one in the bath room . The bath room had about 500-700 Nat's , fruit flies and drain lies - worst I've ever seen . One place had bed bugs like you wouldn't believe . I would say the guy put up with them for about a month before putting his name on the list to be treated . Took me 5 treatments to get that place under control . I went into one apartment where the lady just took off and never returned for 3 months . She had fleas . So I go in and spray and then place a Flea bomb in the middle of the carpet . I quickly step outside and the janitor says " Hey man , look at your socks . " My white socks were BLACK - COVERED IN FLEAS !!!!!!!!!!
I ripped them off immediately and sprayed them down and tossed them in the dumpster . I checked my legs and saw a few still left over . I picked them all off and when I got the last one a crushed and rolled him in my finger with all my strength . I slowly opened my finger grip and the fucker jumped and disappeared .




Starting to feel itchy now ???

I live in the basement, and the ceiling about me is falling out, so theres a hole right above my head, and about 8 times a day, a spider will drop down and just dangle between me and my monitor... its scary sometimes when its a big spider :-O

I'm arachnephobic, so if I see a spider I panic and do anything to get out of the room lol. No matter the size of it, or anything, I won't be happy until it's dead. I'm even getting worried now, and my heart rate has gone up lol I can't even look at pictures without sweating.

(btw, don't get any wise ideas)

I catch it and take it outsite.  That seems to be a missing option in the poll. 

I have a basement, so I get spiders and crickets in the house from time to time.
I had scorpions when I lived in Texas.  I think that ended any knee-jerk reaction to smack something I couldn't see in the dark.  It also made me check my shoes in the morning.

I hate spiders. I'll go 'wyaahah!' and keep my distance. If he leaves me alone, I leave him alone. If it comes near me, my reflex will smash it with my shoe.
