Eeeeeew.

Jul 10, 2008 22:27

I just got out of the shower and as I started towelling off a ginormous spider crawled off the towel and onto my hand. A short 'Gah.' and 'Eeeew.' later I got another towel and after getting dressed I managed to transfer the spider onto the floor and squished it. And then I squished it again.
The towel will be washed first thing in the morning.

My arachnophobia is relatively mild, but if the spider's body is longer than 1.5 cm or ir has thos unbelievably fat legs I freak out slightly. I don't screech, but that's more a question of ability than motivation. Usually I'd get the sis to catch the various critters (be it spiders, bugs or whatever), but since she's away I'm free to sqush all the spiders I can find. Hmmm, I think there was at least one in the loo and a whole bunch on the balcony (which can stay there).

Somehow I only remember seeing the really big spiders in the flat since last year. We always had large numbers of opiliones, but the spiders seem to be new. I'm currently cleaning my room and am a bit apprehensive about the very necessary hoovering under my bed... I predict eeeew.

spiders, cleaning
