Help!
I have a complete hatred/fear of spiders and right now there is a giant one in my kitchen. Any advice on how to get rid of it that doesn't envolve going near it?

when the spiders come to town my pants turn brown...

Firstly. its too far up the wall for me to swat, and secondly, that would involve going near it. (and thirdly, it is big, not really the swatable(?) size)
I'd hoover the stupid thing off the wall but the hoovers in the kitchen and the spiders just sitting above the door, looks like i'm not going in the kitchen for a while.

hmmm bit of a dilemma, cant offer any advice really, sorry!

apparently we eat on average six spiders during our lifetime when we're sleeping!

Dude, get some deoderant and spray it off the wall. Wear shoes. When it's on the ground wondering what the fuck just happened to it stamp on it. Twice.

I'm pretty sure thats just an urban myth. Anyway, needed help not a reason not to sleep tonight. I'm going to have enough trouble going to bed knowing there's a giant spider in the flat let alone thinking i could eat the bloody thing too

yeah sorry bout that, i used to have a fear of spiders but have kind of got over it now, but if i see one, i just kill it. and i still cant bring myself to watch the film eight legged freaks. your probably right that eating spiders thing is just a myth i'm sure....

Ok, my spider fear is no longer irrational, they really are out to get me. Decided to try the deodorant method, stood up and the fickin thing was sitting beside my chair! It came after me, who says spiders are more scared of us than we are of them?

you could try throwing something heavy at it from a distance. like a brick or a boot. but there's always the danger you'll miss and the little shit will come racing towards you.

i fucking HATE spiders.
