Available for future use when you see someone post something really stupid (outside of this board of course).

Fact-not made up. Was sitting on my couch last night and when I turned my head to the left, saw this guy sitting on my shoulder. It was this size. I brushed him off my shoulder and he fell behind the couch. Hence the dust and stuff in the picture. I gently brushed him outside. Probably didn't like being outside because it was cool out and it enjoyed the warmer side of being indoors. Harless spider. Not poisonous. If you are viewing this picture on your cell phone, the spider is much bigger than the photo you are viewing of it.

Although he may be cooler than he'd like, he should count his blessings. I would have put him in a pool (deep) of RAID. Then sat the can on top, so it couldn't get away and I didn't have to look at it, until I could get someone to clean it up for me. I can't even deal with dead ones. I think they enjoy my fear.

We get too many spiders in the basement this time of year, so the shop vac is my best friend.

I know they say, the motor spins too fast, but what if they don't quite make it into the motor? Then I am traumatized twice! That's the worst. Spray Home Defense. Then you just have to vac up dead ones. And it's safe around pets.

You should see the "presents" she brings me in the Spring. The only thing worse is a cat who brings you dead mice...

I don't remember which garage cat it was as it has been a number of years now but one of them used to catch/kill voles and leave a small pile of them for me by the kitchen door to the garage. Cat behaviorists say it is a cat's way of thanking a human for taking care and feeding them.

We get too many spiders in the basement this time of year, so the shop vac is my best friend. If possible, I try to release them outdoors. There was one time many years ago where I did intentionally step on a spider. I stopped stepping on spiders after that because once I stepped on it, it was a mother spider, and tiny little spiders which were on its back started scattering all over the place. If any of them grew up to adulthood I never saw them. It was an intersting observation though.
