Post subject: paranoid! I have this cupboard in my kitchen. I hate it as theres a pipe inside it that seems to have water on it all the time and plumber said theres nothing they can do
 Anyways its pretty much just used as a store cupboard, for spare toilettries, kitchen roll, baby wipes, etc and my carpet cleaner sits underneath. Anyways OH had chucked loads of his old dust sheets in next to the carpet cleaner and i've been on at him to clear them out. He does it this morning and comes in to announce that there is hundreds of spiders in there!!! I am TERRIFIED of spiders. I am absolutely praying that i dont need to go into that cupboard today to get anything coz i cant face even looking at them. Thing is one has escaped and now i'm totally paranoid and every room i go into a check everywhere in case theres a spider lurking 
Does anyone have any advice on getting rid of all these things and keeping them away? OH said hes just going to hoover them all up tonight but i want to make sure they are gone for good! _________________

Post subject: I would freak
I hate them, i cant even type the word, they are evil, the work of the devil and they should all die !!! I dont care that they eat flies or whatever...buy a venus fly trap plant !!!
Sorry i went off on one... i would leave the house and make him clear out the whole cupboard and maybe bleach it all and then i would probaby never go in that cupboard again xx _________________   Posted: Tue Mar 13, 2012 11:14 am
Post subject: Nicola i feel the exact same lol i'd rather flies in my house than spiders any day! At least flies dont creep about, you can usually see them and open a window for it to fly out whereas you need to go to a spider if you want rid
honestly i'm so jumpy today. Constantly feel like they're on me and looking about everywhere like a nutter lol x_________________

Post subject: I've heard they hate conkers? Get your OH to clean it out then try and find a spider repellent.

Post subject: Hi
This phobia has always fascinated me. I am personally afraid of heights which has, for no reason at all, got steadily worse since I have been a teen, but heights can kill me so I see it as quite a rational fear. If I lived in Oz or somewhere like that I would understand it but I just don't get what is behind the fear. I don't like beetles and if I see one I ask DH to kindly remove it however I don't go mental and if you think Lynford Christie can run you should see me if a wasp comes within 5 feet of me! 
Please don't think that I am belittling you all I am just honestly interested in your reasons for it. Is it something from when you were young that happened or is it that you've been told that we all eat about 1 per year in our sleep (thats what I was told when I was young anyway)?

Post subject: Its just the fact that they are so ugly and creepy looking. They scurry about and hide in places so you cant see them then show up at the most unexpected places. Dont think i've had a particularly bad experience with spiders that has triggered it, just do not like them and never have. I am actually getting the heeby jeebies just typing this. Feel like they're in my hair and everything lol. Suppose its an irrational fear but to me they are just horrid!

Im the exact same. Im getting better though. I dont want Aimee to be scared of spiders or anything so now i can manage to kill them myself but only if i flatten them with a brush so im still about 5 ft away from them.When i bought a new suite my only stipulation was that it must have little legs so i can see whats underneath it because every time i moved my old couch to sweep underneath it, a bloody spider would run at me...yuk yuk yuk!!! Now im going to leave this topic and not return cos its making me all itchy ! xxxx _________________ Posted: Tue Mar 13, 2012 2:45 pm

Post subject: I am the same, hate them. I hope your OH remembered to empty the Hoover bag after he hoovered them up. I saw on utube a guy hoovered up a big spider and when he turned off the Hoover, it climbed back out at him he completely freaked out and dropped the end of the Hoover and away ran the spider, I thought to myself, hmmm that spiders going to wait it's time to get revenge lol xx
