I'm not talking about Tarantula who's bite is not strongly venomous to human but may cause fatal to those with allergic reactions. I'm only talking about house spiders. I have known two german aquintance that were afraid of house spider. I find that weird since we have plenty of house spiders in our country. Are white people afraid of spider? It's a question out of curiousity.

This is quite a common fear and I know several people who will not go anywhere near a spider. It is something that I have never fully understood, although I would not be so unkind as to criticise someone for it.
Spiders do not concern me at all and I am perfectly happy picking one up to place it outside. They can also be quite useful at controlling other pests in the house.

I am not really afraid of spiders. I do not want them on me though ro in my home. I will kill them if they are in the house because they do bite and build cob webs everywhere. I do not mind them outside though if they are small ones.

Not sure about white People but for me,i must say that Home spider are not harmful at all.but it just make your home mess when it makes shelter all around which irritate us and that is the only negative point about it.otherwise i don't feel to kill it rather just remove its shelter....!
