Sometimes kids just develop the fear anyway. My missus is terrified of spiders (she once rang me at the match as there was what she thought was a big spider in the living room) and I don't like them, so I tried to get my kids to like them, not be scared etc. I've got a picture of the youngest holding a big fucker. Somehow, they are now both scared of spiders and run from the room if they are on the telly.

Going back to this, they were in holiday club yesterday, the youngest comes home, "Dad I held a TARANTULA today". The other wouldn't even look, but at least I know the youngest doesn't actually have a fear, he must just have been copying his brother

Aah but that is a tame house trained tarantula, probably a bit of a softie.

Unlike a free range, feral tarantula hiding (and simultaneously lurking) in a carefully concealed web, just waiting to skitter out as your face hits its web.

The stuff of nightmares.

I think it's their Ma who is the problem. Last night I'm in the bathroom with Ben (youngest) brushing his teeth. Next thing I can hear hysterical screaming coming from downstairs, I thought they were being attacked. Adam comes haring up the stairs, gives me a laptop charger and sprints past me. Jo runs half way up the stairs, screaming is it there, is it there? I throw the charger downa nd I'm asking what the fuck is going on? They both say they've seen this black insect, no idea what it was, but its terrified them. I asked how big it was, Jo holds her fingers apart, we are talking 8 inches - Adam says it had pincers and antenna. I go grab a torch, look around the living room, no sign of this beast. Pulls the couches out, checks under the telly, in the kitchen, nothing.  Then they tell me she got Adam to put the lights on and it legged it towards him and they think it went out the door.

I go into the hall and I spot this thing on the stairs - its some thick cotton strap about 8 inches long, off some clothing or something, with a big strand of cotton trailing up the stairs, stuck to the velcro on the laptop charger. Daft bastards had dragged it about the room as they ran in terror. :lmao

Spiders are back. :wave

So for the 3rd(?) time in my recent life I have a spider renting space in my car. He/she is light brown & about the size of a bottle cap. I was just leaving a stop light when the little bugger casually strolled across the inside of my windshield at eye level, as if to say hello. Then proceeded to slide into the space between my windshield and frame just above my head. I pulled over & went searching but never found it.

So it's there. Waiting. For juuuust the right moment. To drop on my fucking head while I'm in heavy traffic going 60 MPH.  >:(

Massive fucker in my hallway last night, legged it before I could get a shoe on it and slid into the crevice under the back door frame. I opened the door and couldn't see the bastard for ages as it was getting dark, then spotted it half way up, squashed into the frame of the door between the lock mechanism and the sponge bit. Ended up spraying that anti-spider stuff on it until it came out but it still managed to get away, hopefully outside as I couldn't find it anywhere. Fucking sly they are.

Had three big fuckers in my kitchen / living room in the last couple of weeks. All of the lightning fast house spider variety and they all do the same rat run round the edge of the walls making them hard to get. Considering burning the place down and starting again.

Apparently it's breeding season so they're out and about looking for girlie spiders.

Been a few big ones brazenly wandering about in the house lately, I'm scared of them but thankfully the dog isn't ;D

Saw an interesting thing the other day. And by interesting I mean ‘skin crawling’ but there was quite a big cobweb outside my kitchen window. Looked out and could see the inhabitant (looked a bit false widows but was probably perfectly harmless) had something caught in there. On closer inspection it was another spider and it was in the process of wrapping it all up. Looked again a few minutes later and the web was empty, the bastard had dragged the other spider to its little hideaway in the window frame and was obviously tucking in. Creepy bastards.

False widow spider. Good job it didn't bite you, your arms and legs would have fallen off. Best burn the smoking shelter down just to be safe.

Nah it's not really poisonous, however it's bite is similar to that of being stung by a wasp.

Nah, they're not really. Our kid lives in Bournemouth and sometimes sleeps in the conservatory. He kept finding little spider bites on him one week, a search around the bed revealed a false widow living in it.

The markings and colours certainly look like one. I usually find one or two on the outside of my shed.

They're pretty useless when it comes to water. As soon as they break the surface tension in their struggles, that's it and they usually end up drowning.

All except these little beauties of which there are several variants that live in ponds here in the UK, some mostly underwater and that can even catch and eat fish....



... though only tiny minnows and sticklebacks.

I think they are the largest UK spider.

We had a monster of a house spider in last week. One of those really big, dark brown things. I managed to catch it and put it outside.

It wasn't happy, but it's better than being battered with the Echo.

It was almost midnight in the Peruvian Amazon when scientists from the University of Michigan heard a scratching noise in the leaves and saw a dinner plate-sized tarantula dragging a opossum along the forest floor. The spider had grabbed the opossum -- a small furry creature known as a mouse opossum -- by the neck and it was still twitching when the scientists found the pair...
