Silly but serious question lol
 
I dont mind having a laugh at my self so here it goes lol..

Moved into a new home which has a greenhouse... problem is.. its full of spiders and cob webs!! and.. honest to god i HATE HATE HATE spiders.. cant even walk in there..

( from a bodybuilder & rugby player..go figure lol ) :mrgreen:

So.. any ideas how i can get the sodding things out so i can go in there haha..

I thought using a flowthrower and burning them all :twisted:

One of the spiders must be the size of a bottle lid so no chance im going near that git lol


Feel free to laugh ! :grin:

dugy 21-03-2009 05:54 PM

haha, just get a broom and stand at the door waving it and then the garden hose should wash them out hopefully without killing them!

welshlass22 21-03-2009 06:07 PM

dolittle 21-03-2009 08:34 PM

i hate spiders so much i could cry!!! when i was 16 i was in bed and my back kept itching so i looked in the mirror and i had the biggest blackest spider i had ever seen on my back!!!!!!!! i think i cried for a week.

ME SHELL 21-03-2009 08:42 PM

yes I had a huge spider in my dressing gown, it came out of my sleeve. I have neveer screamed to loud. I cried for ages and I came out in an awful rash. I couldn't sleep for weeks and was afraid to sit down anywhere encase one would crawl on me. Even thinking of it now makes me feel quite ill

shootinglou79 21-03-2009 08:46 PM

wilsonathome 21-03-2009 09:09 PM

swad1000 22-03-2009 12:29 AM

They aren't going to hurt you so just get in there.

Failing that jet wash it out, gets rid of spiders, cobwebs and dirt all in one go.

trulytortoises 22-03-2009 12:46 AM

are my god theres no way on this earth u wud get me in there with all those spiders, i'am Petrified and i say that with a capital P, infact im actually checking around me as i speak incase theres any around, im sure they sit at my front door n wait for me to open it, i always seem to get them. my gran n grandad used to live in scotland and there was loads of spiders, i would wake during the night seeing a huge spider above my head i used to scream for my grandad who wud then have to get up in the middle of the night get the over out or a shoe n kill it then i could never sleep incase its family came after me. Arrgghh!!!!!!!!!!!

Pretty Penguin 22-03-2009 09:20 AM

It is very, very bad luck to kill a spider....:shock:

Anna

welshlass22 22-03-2009 09:30 AM

Lol TT im like that too. If i kill a spider im always wary of a bigger one coming after me :lol:

I remember once i killed a baby daddy long legs and then a big one was in the same corner about 5mins later.

Wanna know whats soooo wierd..........
I can pick up FLYING daddy long legs and throw em out, buti cant touch or go near daddy long legs or spiders :lol:

dolittle 22-03-2009 04:37 PM

i am waiting for the day a giant spider comes to eat me for all the deaths i have caused by squashing or drowning down the sink!!!!!!!

trulytortoises 22-03-2009 04:41 PM

Lol! i can catch daddy long legs with abit of tissue but couldnt do it with a spider, even if i have to kill them with a shoe it takes me ages to pluck up the courage to go over n get near it with the shoe then wen ive stopped flapping n squashed it i have to leave the shoe on top of it even though its dead i still cant go n pick it up.

Alan1 22-03-2009 05:28 PM

I remember reading of someone who had a terrible noise in their ear and it had gone on for some time before they visited their doctor. It turned out that a spider had crawled into the ear and layed eggs which had eventually hatched :-|

kimmerz 22-03-2009 06:11 PM

I think men who are afraid of spiders are so funny my boyfriend don't like them and one day he opened my backdoor and a spider fell down on his hand never seen him jump so far and hes a rugby player, I had to run after it and catch it before he kicked it. and my old manager at work was afraid too so I made a deal with him which was if he didn't make me change any of the bin bags at work I would catch any spider and put it out side lol

OMG - I'm going to get permanent ear plugs. :shock: I really don't like those big house spiders (you know, the ones the size of a small donkey with big teeth and thick, hairy legs). I keep an empty plastic cotton bud container in my bedroom to catch any because I can't sleep knowing there's one in the room with me. I don't like to kill them though. Daddy long legs are cute and don't bother me in the slightest.

Don't know if it's true but I heard daddy long legs were poisonous but there fags are too tiny to puncture anyone or anything.

joanna 22-03-2009 06:23 PM

Sorry Adam but I have laughed my way through this!! Even though I hate spiders too!

A jet wash, powerful hose would work but they'd all be back again the next day :lol:

I remember when other half caught a huge one in a pint glass and flushed it down the loo. The next day I got up and went for a pee, lifted the toilet lid up - and there it was standing on the water! :shock:

Wow sylvia we also keep an empty cotton bud container for the same reason

welshlass22 24-03-2009 08:22 AM

I remember once i was going up to bed (in the attic bedroom)...and i had realised i left my window open so i closed it (in the dark with no lights on)...and then i heard something crunch. When i put the light on i had caught a HUGE black spider in the handle of the attic window.....All i remember is seeing it...Crying...calling my dad....the spiders leg falling off and then him landing on the floor, thinking which way to run....I was like noooo dont run toward my bed because i'll never find you....But luckily he turned left and fell down the stairs (because theres a banister then when you look over it your looking by the bedroom door, because my stairs bend around)....My dad picked it up in a pint glass and his legs were still hanging out OMG!!....:lol:.....I got goosies just talking and thinking about it...Ewwwww

ME SHELL 24-03-2009 10:10 AM

hahahaha Jo bet he'd never try breaking into your house again :lol::lol:

welshlass22 24-03-2009 10:44 AM

Thats what I do!! I have one of them spider catchers but it dosent let me stand far enough away! I tried it once and as soon as I caught the spider I dropped the catcher as I was too scared to hold it and the thing ran into a hole ready to come out another day, I didnt sleep that night I had to tuck my pants into my socks before I went to sleep!!

Zen 24-03-2009 09:29 PM

Weve got one of those spider catchers from lakeland, great things to use....except my hubby does it for me, still cant go near them!

I remember putting on my jeans one day, they had been hanging over the bath, anyway i put them on and felt this sharp prick opened the zip and i has been bitten by a HUGE harvest spider, i couldnt get the jeans off quick enough, i was screaming like a banchee, hyperventilating and trying not to vommit at the same time!!! mean while hubby is killing himself on the floor laughing! :evil:
Trouble is i cant bring myself or let any one else kill them....bad karma that, they will come back and get ya! ;)

Good luck though!:razz: i'm afraid i wont be coming to help!

Ok.. so jeans come off with spiders around...you SURE you dont want to help??? lol.. only kidding haha!

Sadly there still in there.. im debating my move.. im eyeing up putting a hose outside and playing god.. creating a huge tidal wave for the evil evil things!

Hose = long distance = even further distance from me = PERFECT!

I HATE SPIDERS!!!!!!!!! :p
