I'm so creeped out!

[starrylizard]

I found a nest o' spiders in my car boot (trunk for you Americans) this afternoon and dealt with the three large spiders and nest o' baby ones without too much squealing and I was very proud.

BUT... I just found another nest of them IN MY KITCHEN! Ahhhhhhhhrrrrg!

Killed them. Sorry to the pacifists, but I really can't capture and release that many, no way na ahh, not gonna happen. The momma spider was BIG too, maybe 2cm long and all bulbousy!

Anyway, I'm now creeped out. Really creeped out. They were in my house. I'm jumping at shadows... I looked them up on the web and they may be black house spiders, which are apparently venomous, but not lethal. Well could be worse I guess. *whimpers and hides*

Eeek! Spiders! I hate spiders! Having a nest of them in my car or in the kitchen - oh the horrors!

Kudos to you, you were very brave dealing with them! I guess I would have screamed a bit and my legs would have given out or something. Did I already mention that I hate spiders?

*points behind you* SPIDERS! RUN!

:P

Actually, well done. Congrats. I think it's great that you managed to get the first nest out alive!

Especially given that you live in Sydney. You have FUNNEL WEBS. 0.o

(My rule for spiders: If I know they're not venomous (or I'm unsure and they're small) they get to live. If they're big and/or I know they're venomous, they get to meet Mr Shoe.)

Hullo!

Evil, evil spiders!

Also, the resort from the other entry looks awesome! And yay for the convention! I think Jess said something ages ago about going with you, but I'm sorry I don't have any money - so that's all me.

Glad you had a good time, though! :D Even if there are spiders attacking you from every direction ...

Eeew! I would be freaking out too if I was you. I'm not really afraid of spiders, but I HATE the thought of a nest of them in my kitchen. *shudders* I hope you got rid of them all!
