What do You do when You see a Spider?

[Trooper205]

What I do is quite odd, as anyone might imagine.

First, I try to identify it. I take a close look at it, admire patterns, colors, etc, and try to determine it's Genus. After that, acquire it's Sex. (Males are frequently harmless) Normally if it's safe, I'll pick it up and put it outside. House Spiders, Jumping Spiders and various others are what I see most frequently and I must say, they really won't bother you unless they need to.

Yeah, you can say that, but my ass is still scared after me knowing spiders won't harm you unless you mess with them. I know black widows are even scarier, known for poisonous venom that can kill.

I would proceed to make a war yell as I spray the spider down. That RAID spray doesn't really help much 'less you spray large amounts, same with roaches. With ants, it's very quick. (Mold ants, anyway). Other than that, I wouldn't really have the guts to kill a spider because I'm bloody scared of them. If I have someone with me, close by me, I'll feel more confident in killing the spider.

I don't get scared by them unless they are huge

First rule of spotting a spider is never take your eyes off of it. My kids are having a hard time learning this. They come and get me stating there is a spider running a muck in the house. I am like where and they are like downstairs. I get up and run downstairs and can't find it and I look at them and say you know the first rule.

Then we go rent a hotel for a week.

If I find and lose a spider, I'm naming him cottoneye joe because there are two things I want to know: where did he come from? Where did he go?

[Apple1996]

Give it a cute name and keep it as a pet

Lol well... the other day we were cleaning out a closet we've just been storing junk in and yea... I found a big spider started screaming cause I was backed into the corner and then it came crawling out n so hubby killed it. & we're still not sure what kind it was kinda looked like a brown widow to me but smaller butt thinner legs.

I actually like spiders if they don't come out of no where. I like to look at them, their patterns.

More fascinated by snakes

Take it outside, I dont like killing it because I feel like the spider is crawling on me if I kill it. I had this fear as a kid that if I killed a spider the spiders family would see me do it and come after me when I was sleeping or in the shower

[call_me_scar]

I just let it be they kill other thing I dislike even more like mosquitoes

[OddBeMe]

Suck it up in hand held vacuum and toss it outside.

[DizzyDesii]

Try to kill it before it gets away

[Anonymous]

Run away or cry if help isn't available

[Anonymous]

Spray it or if they're on the floor, stomp on it.

[Vivaldi]

I kill them if they are at my home.

[Hangry22]

I do nothing
