She's scared of them and kills them if she gets the chance, but I love the little arachnids, so I won't kill them. :p

Instead I capture them and set them free in the wild. :D

Every time a spider dies, a piece of me is lost.

Do the released spiders run straight for the nearest road only to be run-over by traffic?

her and i are the same!
i hate them because it seems they love to bite me. I can wake up on any given mmorning and have at least 2 spider bites. I hate them but they are everywhere in my house. :(

My wife makes me dispose of them too. It was terrible in Australia when I had to kill spiders that had bodies about 2 inches across, plus the legs.

I bought some powder at the dollar store because our kid's rooms are downstairs and they were getting bites... puffed the powder in all the corners down there, and within a couple days the bites stopped. I'm not 100% sure what's in the powder, but it says you can use it directly on pets to get rid of fleas and such too. The name of the product escapes me at the moment, though.

Peoples phobia's are funny!

My best friend is a large burly dude, he is one tough MF. He's the kind of guy that can rip his arm open with a chainsaw, never make a sound, tie it up with an old rag and keep on working. But if you throw a June bug or a cricket on him, he will run screaming like a school girl, ripping his shirt off while he runs:)
