"Hearing a scream that could wake the dead the other night, followed by my daughter charging into my room, kicked the cat off the bed as she dived under the covers. "Spider?" I asked her. "OMG the worlds biggest spider!" Found it the next night...... not quite the worlds biggest spider, but I did have to wiggle the pint glass to get all its legs comfortable inside the glass. Feisty bugger, it kept attacking the glass with its fangs." O M G

"You can buy loads of catcher things from places like argos etc. Plug in things that repell them etc. Up the thread someone mentioned lavender oil and conkers. I put conkers on window sills above the radiators and feel this works rather than in the corners. Never tried lavender but have heard of using pepermint. Cant confirm whichbis better. My cat would normally catch them for me but he is now too old and some of them at the moment are so big, the cat glances at me as if to say 'sod that, you can deal with that one!' " Clever cat  | |||

"There is of course another sure fire method of combating the problem albeit admittedly a tad more intricate than my previous suggestion..... The new Royal Marines Commando TV advert clearly shows a hard as nails soldier who, thanks to his expert and extensive training, can effortlessly tolerate a Giant Bird Eating Spider crawling across his face without so much as even flinching or blinking (Rambo, move the hell over!!!!) The answer you seek therefore is to simply sign up for the Royal Marines; After a few years of merciless and likely soul destroying training and possibly a few stints of duty in some far away war torn zone, you will be completely cured of your arachnophobia! If however, in the unlikely event that after all this, you still hold an aversion for spiders, you can simply sue The Ministry Of Defense for false advertising and make a shit ton of money. Either way, it’s a win - win situation "Bugger that I just need a marine | |||

" There was an interesting article on BBC yesterday All the old wives tales have shown no scientific evidence of doing anything ..bin them. The mating season will end first week of October so you'll see less rampant male spiders looking for fun. Keep the house tidy to deter them and if you must, Windows shut.
