As i was going to sleep I looked up at my curtens to see about 100 baby spides making webs and well in this case existing.

So I ran out of my room and grabed the Raid can (Bug Death) And wasted about half of it on the spiders and my room. From there I used the broom to grab them all up. The broom is now in the trash can (spider side down).

Mom is going to ask questions tomorrow. The good part is I never screamed. Though now I have an adrenaline rush enough to keep me up all night.


Now I have arachnophobia (Fear if spiders) Joy.

If I found 100 spiders in my room I'd burn down the house. I smashed a big one in here just yesterday, despite having raided the hell out of the room the night before.

Maybe trashing the broom was a bit excessive, but then, this is SPIDERS we're talking about. I once threw a shoe just to kill one that was on the opposite side of my room.

I also have to agree with HM's "burning down the house" policy.

Spiders are scary.

If I found 100 spiders in my bedroom... the whole world would have heard my scream.

Can I come over and take those things away? I keep getting gnats in my house because the freaking door has been left open a few times. I really wouldn't mind having spiders around to eat these annoying midges.

You can take all the spiders in the world, CJ. You'd make me a much much more relaxed gal.

Why was the broom in the trash can instead of OUTSIDE?

And I'm having a hard time believing that a can of Raid would be very effective against spiders as most of them are highly resistant to conventional poisons. But I suppose that spiderlings are easier to kill.

What are those spiders that carry thier spiderlings on thier back? Is that a wolf spider? I forget. I sprayed one down one night instead of stomping because I didn't want hundreds of little spiders all over the place. Covered her completely in toxic foam. Poison + suffocation. The little ones died, but about an hour later I watched her uncurl and start to walk away. I shuddered, wanted to cry, and stomped her into the carpet.

Yeah because of the stuff you learn in biology by the surival of the ones that are immune to the poison that would be true.

However I panicked and well I saw the raid can first.

If we were mere blades of grass, spiders would be an actual threat to us. You should see what happens when you throw a blade of grass onto a spider web. It's like a mini-tiger or something.

Funny. I find spray poisons quite effective - just very very slow.

A shoe is much faster.

Although spray poisons have their benefits in getting a spider to drop to an acceptable shoe-smackin' level).

Don't forget to kill this too:

I find 90% isoprophyl alcohol to be more effective than most commercially available poisons.

It might be that you can get better poisons in Australia than we can here.

Hooray for clockspider.

I'd attempt to squish 'im with the clock. If that failed, I'd bang the clock around till he was in shoe-smackin' range.

Ahhh likes the shoe-smackin'.

But a can of Axe is. One time I found this spider that was about a few centimeters long on the window in my bedroom, but I was afraid to hit it because I didn't want it falling on my unclean floor, so I went into my bathroom and took out a can of Axe. By the time I had returned, it had gone into the blinds, but I nudged it out and as soon as I saw it I sprayed it down. It soon became a pile of interesting smelling dead. I'm not sure exactly what killed it. It was either the chemicals in the spray, the amount of spray I used, which left a large puddle on my windowsill, that could've drowned it, or just the scent of it that killed it, but it died and that's what matters most. Now I keep a can of Axe in my room for things like this even though my mom hates the scent of it. It kills them so I don't care.

I freak out when I see spiders too. I once walked in my room and saw a pretty sizable spider sitting on the window sill. I ran back into the hall, grabbed a can of green spray paint, and went back to spray it. There is now a green outline of a spider on the window sill.

I dunno -- like I said, all I'm trying to do is stun the spider into closer range. I prefer to kill it with a shoe. I find that poisons here are effective at stunning the spider enough for me to be able to whack it into a flattened mess.

Although it IS possible to kill spiders with the sprays we have here, it just takes too long and quite a bit of spray. I want the spider dead FAST dammit! The sooner its dead, the sooner I can relax.
