People love to say that they are harmless. But then why give it the most harmful sounding name imaginable?
HUNTS
MAN
And not just the men. The women and children too!
I don't like sand. It's course and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.
When I was younger and I had roommates I hated it when they killed the house spiders. It was the reason we had so many other bugs. Once that roommate moved out, the rest of us stopped killing the spiders and after a burst of spiders the rest of the bugs were gone. House bugs are very creepy but they keep the bad house bugs away. Like bedbugs. Fuck bedbugs and the evolutionary niche they've crawled out from.
Does it come as good news that cockroaches are bedbug predators? Some real "pick your poison" shit, huh?
Honestly yeah, actually the building I previously moved out of had both. So I just kept very tidy by keeping everything they'd be attracted to sealed and away and left the cockroaches alone. It was a lot though, every night throw out all the garbage. Seal and put away all the food, if food can not be easily sealed put it in the fridge. Clean up all the crumbs and any drops of water on the floors, counters shelfs, ect. Lightly Borax the sinks, toilet, tubs. Then wake up, collect the ones that died overnight, clean up and go about my day. Oh and make sure you take apart then make your bed every morning and night to make sure nothing else crawled in there. They were never more than a small nuisance and I never had bedbugs compared to my neighbors. Yay adorable housing.... So glad to be outta there.

You see, I think spiders are incredibly interesting animals. But I really can't look at them. I guess my Mum screaming every time something with more than 4 legs appeared had a lasting impact on me. So having one next to me while I sleep is nightmare stuff to me.
Depends on the spider. I would not want something like a huntsman spider, but I don't mind the small ones that just sit in their corner webbing.
I always say that I don't mind spiders. They're very respectful. They stay in their corner and eat the bugs I don't like.
That's the spider's way of paying rent, in our household. If they come out into the spaces where we are, it goes against the rental agreement, and they are ...evicted.
I too have the same policy in my house. Respect each other's personal spaces, and we're all good
