Do you like living with spiders?

Well...outside is fine with me, but what about spiders living in your home? Do you have any living on the sides of the main door in your house? How about in the corners of your rooms or even inside the bathroom? Back in my old house, we had daddy long-legs at every corner of our house. In the bathroom, there would be a few in the top corners of the shower, one by the toilet, and even one by the toothbrush holder hanging there on its web. Now that's something I didn't like. I don't really like spiders.

I really do not like spiders...in fact i am scared of them...I'd like to believe that they are more scared of me than i am of them so that i won't fear them anymore...but i just can't get rid of the fear...also, spiders make webs and i think webs look dirty...they are not so pleasant in the eyes...

Huntsman Spider - Huntsman Spider from Australia
eeewww I hate spiders! I'm from New Zealand and we got quite a few over there, but they weren't very big and we didn't have any poisonous ones. Now I live in Australia and they are everywhere! There's ones called the St Andrews cross, they are yellow and black striped and I see about 10 of those a day! Luckily those ones stay outside and don't appear to move around much, but they still freak me out lol We've only had one actually inside our place so far thankfully. It was a huntsman and was huge! I got my boyfriend to get rid of it. They're not posionous and apparently some people like to have them around around because they 'hunt' other bugs in your house, but I couldn't do it! Have added a picture, hope it doesn't freak anyone out!! lol

If something like that were living in my house, everyone would have to know about it and get rid of it ASAP! Thankfully, they are not poisonous so it must be harmless to people. I however would not take any chances. The last thing I would want is have that thing crawl in my bedroom when I'm asleep. Thanks for your response!

You mean those tiny black ones that hang out on the walls? I've had some of them in my house. I think I know what you're talking about. They are pretty harmless and you can squish them easily.

Actually I don't like spiders living in my home.Once I found a spider in the bathroom and I wanted to kill it.But my mother stopped me and said Chinese people consider spider as a propitious insect.I let it go but I still in doubt that whether people think spider means lucky.Maybe spiders can bring good luck to someone?I'm not sure.But this idea is interesting.

You probably felt sick because your mind was telling you that you drank some spider juices...all of the germs and hair the spider had on it was in your juice and you drank some juice LMAO! TOO FUNNY!

I have an greement with the spiders in my apartment. I don't bother them and they don't bother me. I have webs in the cornors of some rooms near the floor. I don't clean them and they don't bite me. It's worked for about three years now.

i absolutely hate spiders. i dont want them living in my house! i dont know why, but i am terrified of them. i used to play with daddy longlegs when i was little, but now i hate all spiders. we used to have these jumping spiders in my parents' basement a few years back. they were so scary! i would prefer to not even have htem exist, but im sure they are useful for eating bugs and stuff like that.

Well I dont spiders at all. They are just ugly and creepy. And if you get biten by one sometimes you can get real sick. So whenever I see one I always kill them. I smash them with a book.

I don't mind spiders since they do eat other worse bugs. But I definitely do not want them in the house. Most spiders who get in my house do not make it out alive. Spider season has already started - we are getting more spiders than normal. At least they aren't coming out from my computer desk as much - I hate when that happens.

i have a phobia of them! I can't even look at them because they gross me out so much. I can't even get near them! When i see a spider inside, I have to yell for someone else to come take care of it...hopefully theres someone around who's nice enough. I usually just get them randomly on my bedroom walls. Even though I'm scared of them, I don't really like to see them killed though, I'm weird I guess. I'd rather have someone put it back outside.

we have daddy longlegs,but that's about it-i don't mind them though.i've had some pop down from the chandelier to say "hi" while i'm eating dinner. when i lived in arizona though,that was a whole other matter entirely.some,i didn't even know what they were,and the black widow in the closet with the egg sack had to go. i draw the line at "can kill me" bugs.

While you were eating dinner, some popped down to say "hi"? Yeah see, I would kill it right away, or at least move it to some other place. Thanks for you response!
