4 brown recluses, 1 cobweb spider (the other one went away somewhere), 5 daddy-longlegs, 1 black jumping spider, several zebra jumpers, 1 yellow sac spider (keeps going back and forth across the ceiling every night, odd thing), some black house spiders and...
EARWIGS!!!!
*sobs uncontrollably in the corner*
I want the bugs to go away T______T I'm trying to be nice and simply put the spiders and stuff outside instead of squishing them but....I can't sleep at night anymore. Not after SOMETHING was crawling on my arm and I picked it up and threw it at the window. Only saw the silhouette of it, but it was at least an inch long and thick. So two options there: lightening bug, or earwig.....*shudders*
4 BROWN FRIGGIN RECLUSES, THAT'S JUST CRAZY!!!
It's like, suddenly those spiders have a THING for me. And the damn black ones KEEP GOING IN MY CLEAN LAUNDRY AND UNDERWEAR!!!! FRIGGIN PERVS!!!!
"Black House Spiders ...venomous - nausea
Venom toxicity - the bite of the Black House Spider is poisonous but not lethal. Certain people bitten experience severe pain around the bite site, heavy sweating, muscular pains, vomiting, headaches and giddiness. First aid and medical attention (ambulance) should be sought as soon as possible. "
Yea. Sure. Of COURSE I get poisonous ones in my underwear. OF COURSE.
And my little brown buddies like to hang around downstairs all the time. So I put them on my dad's computer desk under a cup for when I can take them outside.
Buggers are friggin huge, those pictures comparing them to a quarter do NOT lie.
I'm half developing arachnophobia and half developing a certain fascination with them. Oyyyy........;_; Maybe if I keep being nice to them they won't attack me??
They haven't gone into my room yet.....so they're upholding their end of the bargain. But exploding like crazy elsewhere.
Oh, yea, I made a promise to the spiders several years back that I wouldn't squish them if they avoided my room, and so far they haven't (before there were tons). That's the bargain I meant.
Seriously though....all those poisonous ones, what the hell man?! Go outside already! ><

Holyshit. I hate spiders.
ESPECIALLY daddy-longlegs. *shudder* I like jumping spiders (though they get annoying) and those tiny ones as long as they don't make webs in my house. :C

The other day, this really big spider decided to bungee jump in front of my face. [shudder]
I didn't kill it though; they help keep the mosquitoes at bay.
I hate bugs, too. Even over here in England, we get our fair share of annoying bugs, namely the drone flies, which I never fail to mistake for wasps. DX

Bad luck, that. I'm in the mountains myself. There's an earwig nest outside one of the house windows, in the old flowerbed. I turned the soil the other day and BAM. Literally, over 200 earwigs popped out of the ground and charged in every direction.
I skreemed leik da banshee.
We also get plenty of brown recluses, wolf spiders, black house spiders, black widows, scorpions, even tarantulas at certain times of the year. Lucky me, it's rattler season. My sister saw one on the driveway today, flipped out, and killed it dead to pieces with a shovel. (Chopped it with the shovel blade.)
Er... I went off on a tangent. Apologies. Point is, I share your pain. :[

Jolie Says:
I try to leave the spiders be if I can. The really dangerous ones (black widows and recluses} I do tend to kill, though. I have small and curious pets who don't understand a spider bite can kill them, so those get slaughtered when I find them. The rest I leave alone and they don't bother me. Though they do love to wig out my fiance by sitting on his desk, staring and waving their mandibles at him.

Silly Daho, the ones that go into your underwear just want to create a human-spider hybrid with you. You should feel honored. *gigglesnort*
