:shock: OMG Im gonna hurl :pukel:

and Im gonna tape my mouth up everynight from now on :o

And no more apples or lettuce... but its the earwig stories that freak me out!

ha ha. this thread is class.

Anyway, the way I think about it is, if there are loads of spiders legging it about the place in your house, they are eating something. And if they are healthy buggers, then they are eating well.
So, what are they eating? Lots of other little buggers. Which would otherwise be legging it about the place. Spiders normally come out at night, very considerately waiting for you to be off in bed, and then hunt pests in your house.

Like a cat, only less of a total *******.

So, I leave them. I give them a little pat on the back. Tell them their ass doesnt look at all big in that.

I saw a big tarantula in south america. I was grand, and had a good look at him, until the bollix i was with suddenly shouted that it was a jumping tarantula. I was about 10 inches away from it at the time, and I promptly cacked myself. Hilarious.

Crabs on the other hand. Crabs are not cool. In a big way. They are about as uncool as animals come. Other than... lampreys. I had dreams about lampreys. And crabs. And, I didnt wake up a happy camper. More along the lines of a badly strung out herion addict.

In other news, the massive upturn in biker insomnia shows no sign of slowing down.

The experts say that on average we eat two spiders in our lifetime, apparently they come up to our mouths to drink our dribble while we are asleep & occasionally they go a bit too far & get eaten.

Sleep well!!!!!!!!!! :twisted:

If you go down to the desert tonight, your sure to find a big suprise!

:shock: :shock: :shock:
WHAT THE F***!!!

im never ever sleeping again, imagine that thing crawling around in your mouth

A friend of mine who has recently come back from serving in Iraq said that those Camel Spiders were horrific things - looked like a cross between a spider adn a scorpion - with the worst qualities of both.

Mind you, he did say it was amusing watching one squaddie being chased out of a tent by one! :roll:

This lady bought a plant from her local garden centre and took it home. (Can't remember what it's called) Couple of days later she sees a tarantula walking across her floor. She catches it and calls London Zoo who call and collect said spider. They ask her how it came to be there and if she had changed anything recently. She told them about her plant. They take the plant away and examine it. They then come back and tell her the good news. The one we have is a male. They come in pairs. Females are bigger. You have a female tarantula somewhere in your house! They hunt her house. To no avail. No spider. The next day she gets the fumigaters in her house. They are now looking for a dead tarantula. Couple of weeks later she's changing her quilt cover and what do you think she finds?? Exactly! Dead female terantula with about 30 baby ones!!! IN HER BED!! :shock:

true story.

that happened to an old teacher of mine......virtually identical. they found it though before fumegating....in the bed quilt. have heard of them being found in the airing cupboard aswell. :shock: :shock:

I heard the same story from a cousin of mine about some friends who bought a Yucca plant.

I hate this website, some stories you really wish were true and then some spoilsport has to come along and ruin it all :cry:

Oh yeah, it also explains the Camel spider picture...

Even my posting a few years ago about the Brown Recluse spider gets the Snpos treatment...

Oh and for the record, I'm in the pro spider lobby. I respect them as long as they respect me and promise not to crawl into my orifices at night. Besides, everyone knows that if you kill a spider then the queen of spiders will come and get you :shock:

Never knew that, will try anything to keep the buggers out. Just had to buy daughter a screen to go over her bedroom window, no way will she open it to let air in, coz the spiders will get in too!!!

Although I'm just as scared of them as her, I can at least get close enough to them to put the hose from the hoover over them :twisted:
