If a spider comes into your house, do you kindly catch it and throw it out? Or..

I dont care about luck they creep me out. Now I never kill one myself as that takes getting close to one so I have others do it for me. My 8 year old thinks its funny that hes not scared and momma is. And no I did not check out the sight was afraid there would be pictures ewwwwww.

I am terrified of spiders. If I see one in my house I will break my neck to get something to kill it with. Apparently I have a sensitivity of sorts to spider bites that makes me swell at the bite spot and it turns hard as a marble for days.
The problem spiders love me for some reason. You can release a thousand mosquitoes and one spider in a room and you can bet the spider will be the one to bite me.
I never heard they were lucky. But, in my mind, the only good spider is a dead spider.

If it is just a granddaddy long legs spider I can pick it up and put it outside, but any other kind of spider I am just too freaked out over. My daughter does not like to kill them because she is scared of bad luck.. so she sweeps them out with the broom.

I know they must be as scared of us as we are of them, but I just can't seem to get over my fear of them. If it has 8 legs I am afraid of it... unless it is really little and looks non-threatening. The big brown and black ones I would have a heart attack if I saw one and tried to deal with it on my own... nope... my daughter will get them out gently sweeping them out.

I have gunned them with raid before when we had Raid in the house. I just don't want them in the house. I know they do good, but i am scared of them.

Mine go flying out the front door into the garden! That is,if the cat doesn't get it first..thanks for the link!

gemini rose I am so afraid of spiders and I just squash them when I see them as I used to let my son get rid of them but since I had one nasty spider bite on my head get infected and led to my having to go to the emergency room I just demolish hem whenever I see them except for the daddy long legs and they are not dangeroous so I have myson take them outside. lol

if they are close to the window we shove them outside otherwise we just squash them. I know spiders are important to catch flies, etc. Thanks for the site I will check it out.

LOL poor rose! We used to get THE biggest spiders you have ever seen running across the wooden floor in the living room and I would shriek at the size and speed of them although I am not generally scared of them! I never usually kill them cos I think it is cruel when it is so easy to put them safely outside but if they were quick and I couldn't get it out I would splat them with a shoe - it was better than watching the cat chew it then spit it out! xxx

I have no problems with spiders. If it was for me, I would just let them be with their spiderwebs and all. However, I live with someone who's very affraid of them so I have to eliminate every spider I spot.

I just don't like harming living creatures unnecessarily, so I always catch them (using a glass and a piece of paper) and let them out.

I kill them. Some of them are poisonous, but of course we can't always tell, some of them are harmless. I especially don't want one to bite and hurt my dog. I had a teacher once who was bitten, and almost died because they couldn't figure out what was making her so sick. It turned out to be a spider bite she didn't know she had. I live with some woods behind me, so I'm pretty careful. If I'm afraid of anything, it would be spiders. My dog tries to play with them! He'll get them in his mouth, and then put them down, and then wait for them to make a move. LOL, he never eats or kills them, he just wants to play.
