Paid Members Jaffa Posted September 25, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 25, 2011 I generally let spiders be unless the impinge on my life directly in some way. If there's a big boris in the corner I'll ignore it as it kills flies or whatever, but once one dragged itself from under my keys in my keyboard while I was typing. I'm not having that. It died after a lot of angry flapping. Bastard. That's me booked in for a nightmare tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Surf Digby Posted September 25, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 25, 2011 Â This lad was in my garden last summer. There was an even bigger one but he ran toward my face when I was trying to get his picture, which is even worse when you're zoomed in on the bastard.

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted September 25, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 25, 2011 Â Here's my company for tonight. He's been around for a couple of nights, but I've not managed to get a pic of him as he's a bit quick. For reference, those red squares on the cushion are about 8cm along each side.

Paid Members FLips Posted September 25, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 25, 2011 I wish your camera wasn't so good. I'm not keen on seeing the hair and that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shovanist Pig Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Am I the only person that finds spiders less gross than other insects? I'd be disgusted if Isaw an ant in my kitchen but a spider going up my wall doesn't bother me. Â I get more repulsed when I see a woodlouse in the house. I let Spiders be.

Moderators neil Posted September 26, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 26, 2011 What is it about spiders that makes them so fucking frightening. I hope I never see a spider like the ones in this thread. Fuck that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy_kahoona Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I think spiders are getting bigger! Â what with triple glazing, central heating, loft insulation, Spiders can now stay quite comfortably, rent free, in a home without fear of the elements killing them off. Â Just unfortunate we cant say the same about the pensioners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matbro1984 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Early autumn is always spider season but this year has been the worst I remember. We've had 11 of them so far. All of them being the large variety you see here. Why don't we get small spiders any more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I'm amazed at all the spider killing going on. They're entirely harmless, and undoubtedly a lot more scared of you with your big fat face and long wobbly arms. Just pick them up in a glass and tip them out the window. Â I blame years of watching wrestling for turning you all into psychopaths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Justice Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Spiders do not bother me at all, but they bother my missus. I just scoop them up in my hands and put them outside. I don't care what size they are, I'll do it anyway. Besides, the False Widows in my back garden are far more scary. I don't touch those fuckers. But I don't kill them either. I posted some pics of those on here a few years back. Don't know if I have them anymore. I'll have a look. Â EDIT:- Yep, still have them.

Mr_Danger Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 We had a few red or green spiders, freaky little fuckers. The trick is to kill them at every opportunity then after a while they wont bother you as your reputation as a bad ass will get their spidey senses tingling and they'll run off before you even notice them. Im pretty sure thats how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
