See what I did! (Arachnophobes beware)

I am really scared of spiders, some more than others and because I am hoping to go into working with exotic pets/animals I thought I would try and face my fear, so when a huge housespider scuttled into view I nabbed him!

Well done you - I have been working my way up to the large ones. I can catch them with something else and I can be aware of them in a room without panicing....but I have not managed one that big ...yet

Oh No Way!!! I hate the beasties and have a real fear of them!!. If one is in our living room OH has to catch it. I won't let him kill them though he has to put them outside. If there is one in the bath I will not go in there for a pee until he comes home

It made my skin numb for a few minutes, I try not to hurt anything but have to admit that spider didn't live to tell the tale

See, I don't mind those ones...... it's the brown speckly ones with the fat bodies that I'm not so keen on.

I'm not frightened of any of them, though - thankfully
