Just seen a big spider

[Juan Manforce]

Just went for a shite. When I stood up to flush I noticed a 2 inch wide spider floating in the water that wasn't there when I sat down. I'm sure I would've noticed if it had actually been up my cornhole, but still, that was interesting.

This morning I discovered a fairly sizeable spider hiding in my bedroom curtain. Literally between the layers of fabric, so that you could see its silhouette from both sides.

 

You can now see the smeared remains of a fairly sizeable spider on both sides of my bedroom curtain.

You cruel man. I'm scared shitless by them, yet it's always a cup and piece of paper method for me.

If you reckon you can get a cup and paper inside a curtain like that then I'll give you a call next time.

If the thing is big enough to find a way in then I was under the assumption there were gaps.

[Guest]

There probably are, but I'm not going to widen them for a tumbler and chase it around the inside like a washed sock in a duvet cover.

True, yeah, kill the fucker. 

[Polish Dad]

First one in the bath today. Took four people and a lot of swearing to kill the bastard.

While we were gone my housemates mum put another spider in the bath with it, one of the spindly legged pricks, because she heard they would eat the body. It didn't, so got evicted from the house.

I feel resplendent in my spider free paradise. Sure, my house smells like the inside of an After Eight because of the spider spray, but at least I know any arachnid coming near my house will shit his little eight-legged knickers.

I'm not usually scared of spiders but there are some massive fuckers in my flat at the moment. One I have trapped under a plastic tub (I usually do the tub and a piece of paper trick and get rid of them but this one's just too big so it's been sat trapped since Thursday). Just as I was getting ready to go out this morning I saw a massive fucker go under the sofa, too fast for me to get it, I got up and went in to the kitchen, came back and there was another huge one which got under the sofa -I'm hoping it was the same one twice. I'm too scared to go home now. I feel embarrassed cos I've had to call my boyfriend to get find/get rid of them but he can't come over till tonight.

 

I read online that spraying a vinegar/water dilute stops them from coming in the house. Anyone know if that's true? I'm in Asda and about to purchase large amounts of vinegar

You spray it head to toe over your body to create a forcefield.

Spiders don't usually bother me, but I have just seen the biggest one I have ever seen in this Country!

Its web was so thick, it was sticking to my fingers like pritt stick glue.

[Arch Stanton]

This thread terrifies me yet I can't stop myself coming in here. I have to know what's up.

I already have a ninja forcefield but as I'm a beginner it only works when I'm in the flat. The bastards get in when I go out.

 

In other news, my flat smells like a chip shop...

Vinegar's rank. I'd rather have the spiders.
