After sealing all the holes in my house I have been surprisingly spider free for the last week or so!

(Just thought I come and boast.....)

You'll have a task trying to get in my spare room - its currently looking like a mini spares warehouse!

Have you ever tried the die sprays? Do they work?

Sorry Littleme - only just seen your reply!

The Radar spider killer sprays? I've never used them myself!

Ugh have you seen this?

Ooooo I used to buy that years ago, but I thought theyd stopped making it?
Someone once told me that spraying hairspray on them has the same effect (aparently they breathe through their skin, so it suffocates them?)

Yuck at the tube spider. - I like the womans hair colour though!

Sorry ladies, they don't usually breathe through their skin as it's a bit like a shell. They have book lungs just under their abdomen.

When I was at school I sat next to this boy in science who was absolutely shit scared of spiders - couldn't even look at a picture in a book...

I used to wear an array of plastic rings, gumball types from the market, at one point I had this plastic spider ring, it was quite realistic!

The poor boy would sit next to me and wouldn't take his eye off this ring in case it jumped and got him, real edgy the whole time!

Poor lad - he asked to me moved after a while....
