If humans have every right to kill spiders for invading their homes then sharks have every right to kill humans for invading their waters.

In fact, if humans have every right to kill spiders for invading their homes then sharks have every right to kill humans for invading their waters.

Exactly right, sharks do have that right!

I couldn't pick a spider up and move it, I have to have someone do it for me, if I'm home alone and I see a mahoosive spider that will torment me, then sorry, but spider has bad timing and it's going to die.

But did you know it could have left eggs in your room? So they might avenge their mum at some point.

True ITILYT. But did YOU know that the latest scientific research into spiders has found definite signs that they communicate with each other telepathically?

There was also a report in the 'Science and Nature' magazine last year where a man in Cumbria who stomped on a spider was subsequently over-run with them and badly bitten while he slept by 'False Widow' spiders - the very same species as the spider he stamped to death. He ended up moving homes.

Weird eh?

...that made me laugh..the funniest thing ever is seeing your big six foot something son jumping on the sofa and squealing like a girl as they say..he's terrified of them, even the smaller ones actually because he'll scream 'massive spider' and it's only the tiniest thing sometimes...I'm really not keen on the bigger ones myself but I've always had to pretend I'm ok with them and get the glass to put them outside etc...the only one thing he's ever said/his entire list of 'must have' in a long term partner...is that they be ok with spiders and removing them from the house...

..did you try it, do you know if it works..?..my son did it once when she said it to him and he said that he didn't see spiders in his room that year but as he forgot about it then and it was only that one time, it may have just been a 'low spider year'...because sometimes there just aren't very many...also he didn't do it again because every morning he woke up in the dark, he kept stepping on conkers and it hurt his feet ..they were everywhere, like in vampire movies with garlic...

why do sharks get to claim all the waters? they should only be allowed specific neighborhoods of the ocean i think...

Once you're in their water, you're no longer the highest source in the food chain.

Shame on you

You can get spider catchers that catch them inside a plastic thingy where you don't even have to touch the spiders, then you just empty them outside and they scuttle off

That's what I do. I put a little plastic cup with holes in it over them and they climb up it. I turn it around, put the lid then chuck them out the front door and they waddle off.

[Livia]

Not down with you killing spiders, AJ.

*stern look*

[Moviefan]

Poor spider


Leave then alone

They great creature , they keep house clean

[Josy]

Oh well done, I done the same with a massive one at work, I ran away from it the first time then the next morning it was just sitting there bold as **** waiting on me and there was no one to help so I had to tackle it on my own and afterward. I was well happy with myself.

It's alright for people that don't have a genuine fear of them to say just put it outside but if your terrified to the point of shaking and sweating then it's pretty much impossible

So good job Amy I'm glad you got that horrible hairy little ****.

Josy, don't encourage Amy Jade

Josy, they are minute compared to us. What was it going to do, produce a knife and slash you to bits It probably came back because it liked you and you deaded it.

Seriously though I understand people have phobias of them, but they are harmless enough and are probably more frightened of us, I find spiders fascinating, so clever with their web spinning. Maybe a compromise to those with a spider phobia, and ask someone to remove for you them rather than kill the poor things.

The.one I killed wasn't minute Suze I could have put a leash on it and taken it for walk

They do so every time you kill a spider it means in return you get a bit extra fly poop and vomit on your food.

smh

killing it because you are not smart enough to not be afraid of it

pathetic

[Kizzy]

We're getting loads in atm and they are huge..... I don't like killing them but I just cannot relax if I know there is one in the room.

The whole 'they're more scared of you' thing does not apply to these either trust me.

We don't seem to get too many only in the shed and garage,but if any of the family or friends get one ,I am the spider catcher,lol,I always let them go outside,so they probably just amble back,

Josy I'm gonna telepathically command all the Spiders in Scotland to accumulate in your bath tub.
