I actually got attacked (I jest you not) by a spider the other day. It was massive.

I love spiders and have kept them as pets when I was younger. I never got into tarantulas and caught them all myself. I had a bunch off wolf spiders and even a black widow for a couple of weeks until my parents found out.

A few fun spider facts:
-Unless you are in Antarctica you are never more than an avg of 6 feet from a spider

-According to a show on TLC the avg person swallows six house spiders in their lifetime while they are sleeping as in dry times house spiders will wick moistue off your lips while sleeping.

Oh God what disgusting facts for us arachnophobes to dwell on, thanks. Got nothing against tarantulas oddly, have even held one. Wouldn't own one though of course *lol*. But as for the giant house spiders, they can stay away or die, their choice *lol*.

I like the jumpy spiders, they have those furry little bodies, bright eyes and it's hilarious to watch them jump around.

EWWW... i dont like spiders!

 

[Synirr]

I like spiders but I would never try to catch a wild tarantula. They bite, unlike the human raised ones.

They'll both bite, or not, depending on the species and how you handle them . A lot of the tarantulas you see in pet shops are wild-caught, even in this day and age.

Thanks for that Carl


My spider story that happened today:
Calmy picking up around the place and I grabbed some clothes off the floor and BAME! TWO big spiders sitting right where i grabbed, right by my hands. Now I'm not crazy arachnophobic but this made me scream outloud i was so scared and they were monsters. I wanted to kill them or i wouldn't be able to sleep at night but how do you squish one without the other running away? So i grabbed two handy betta cups and held them down over each one on top of the clothing. I tried not leaving pressure on the cup to go grab something to squish them but they would run to the sides to get out! So now i'm stuck, unable to move, with both hands on cups holding the spiders down. Well i had to yell to wake the hubby up(which i felt horrible doing since he just worked 16hrs hours straight) and he came and vacuumed them up as i tilted the cups. I'm paranoid they're gonna crawl backup the hose so i blocked it up. WEW, then end.

i like spiders they r fascinating, we get big house spiders in our house and in the shed he he actually we have this wasp nest on the ceiling of our garage and also had to remove one from our shed, not good

 

[PlecMama]

I hate wasps, I mean, what is the bloody point of them?

oh and scrap the "ooh they're only trying to survive like all of us" nonsense, I don't go about pssing people off for fun or trying to climb on them or just buzzing in their faces for nothing. I won't have a word said in defence of wasps. They're worthless, mean spirited and bad tempered.

I think you'll find that spiders taking moisture of your lips is an urban myth, it has been pretty much proved apiders will do almost anything to stay away from your mouth, as they are able to pick up the co2 in the breath and react like you are a predator, and run away.


I love spiders and have 2 tarantulas, though some are still wild caught, alot of the normal ones are bread now, and I think fishkiller nomore that you would easily be able to find a captive bread pink toe as they are v easy to breed.

Let me ask you a question that you might think is weird, but I want you to answer: What is the point in humans? They're mean spirited and bad tempered (some) and have only destroyed the planet (all). Oh yeah and not to mention they were the ones who invented nuclear bombs that can destroys millions of people in days and can utterly decimate and area and kill the wildlife also)

Oh yeah, wasps pollinate so that your flowers survive. (unless wasps don't pollinate, but if they dont what do they eat? for now I think they are pollinators, until a wasp expert says otherwise)

If i see a spider, i either squash it with my sisters flip flip if its near my room where i sleep, or i leave it if its downstairs or something. I try to keep as far away as i can (which i now know that cant be more than 6 feet ) I've never picked 1 up and never want to
