Took me 6 months to get over a bite. Not so "sweet". It's survival of the fittest.

I used to love spiders as they take out all the other little critters in the house. Until I was bit by one in the middle of the night and ended up at the clinic. Side of my head felt like it had been burned, developed a fever and my face swelled everywhere. Eyes, ears, nose , lips. Just a matter of time before it reached my throat. Finally had to go in for a steroid. Nasty bite. Now I'm paranoid and my husband has to save them as I won't go near them anymore. I keep a respectable distance.

Me neither, but that goes for women, too. If it's not a brown recluse or black widow, it's ok in my book. However, most times they get relocated outdoors.

My friends are black mud dauber wasps. They are docile and they scour the area for brown recluse spiders to pack in their nests as food for their young.

Don't think that I can't relate. I am scared to death of snakes. But I feel sorry for the poor wee spiders. It is not their fault that they have eight legs and more than two eyes und chase their prey or their mate across your livingroom walls....

Where I live there is only one species of spiders who bite und they are incredible rare. But people are still scared of spiders in general, like: yuck, creepy crawlies. A lot of senseless squashing und poisoning going on and stupid superstitions.

I agree. I still want them saved even after being bit.

I couldn’t respect a man who wouldn’t kill a spider! Or a snake. Or any other creepy insect inside my home!

I refuse to kill when it is not necessary. I take spiders outside and release them. ( only kill when it is necessary-like black widows and fiddlebacks). Same with snakes except when they are killing or attacking the chickens.

Actually I'd stop someone from trying to kill a spider in my house. 🤣🤣🤣 I relocate them to the garden instead.

Yeah, Ohio, so there are not many around.... at least at my place. The birds outside get a lot of them and the cats get them inside.

Lol. This grandma kills any 🕷️that are inside. The rule is - if they are outside they live, if they are inside call grandma.

I have the same rule 😁 Although I will take daddy longlegs outside (but they’re not technically spiders anyway). And I am the jar opener in the family 😁 I have very strong hands although you wouldn’t know by looking at them!
