Please stop killing the spiders!

Even if you are afraid of them, that's no reason to kill them. They can't help being spiders anymore than you can help being you.

My mother had a pathalogical fear of spiders which she kindly passed on to me. One day my dad sat me down and got me to think about the logic of being afraid of something so small (in comparison to me). And I can manage my fear now.

Btw, Lakeland sells one of the spider catchers mentioned earlier.

Indeed they do

Has anyone seen Phil Jupitus's routine about his fear of spiders ? Seriously hilarious :rotfl: :rotfl:

Basicly I've got loads of tiny spiders in my house, they don't really cause any bother except their webs are annoying - it looks like I never clean but I do!

How can I get them to vacate my house?

Dried hops I was told deter spiders aswell.

Most spider repellant formulas contain clove oil and chestnut oil.
