I have an irrational fear of spiders... I don not like them at all.



Before I wrote this, a white tail spider (dangerouss to humans) crawled over my arm. I freaked out. I have been bitten by one before on my arm and it went purple and swelled up...
 
Dont they have HUGE spiders in Australia?



Im not afraid to step on or squish a spider when I see it.

My daughter freaks out. Last Sunday she was playing with her toys.. She lifts one up and a spider crawled out from under it. She screamed bloody murder. Ive never heard her scream so loud before.

Stereotypes, stereotypes.



You'll only encounter them if you go out and look for them...or if you're really unlucky.
 
Spiders only come near me if they want to die MWHAHAHAH!!!



I don't mind small ones, I had a small one living on my ceiling for weeks and I called him Mike. But when they get really big, thats when the hoover comes out!
 
I don't like spiders either. I don't mind daddy long-legs spiders but when I see a black spider, I will freak out. I don't kill them and try to get them to crawl on something so I can throw them outside but I'm still afraid they are going to crawl on me

Nothing wrong with spiders... as long as they keep a bit of distance.

There was one in a towel last year

I too am afraid of spiders, although the fear has gotten less and less worse over the years.



Judging by your post, you make it sound like you have an infestation. A spider that big was in your house?
 
That spider isn't even white.



I don't like spiders either, but usually I tolerate them and leave them in the corner or whatever. I'm not one that likes to kill them because it's gross.

We don't have an infestation. They aren't HUGE spiders, they're about the size of 50 cent piece, but still really scary.

It has a white tail.. Hence the name white tail.
 
I don't like spiders at all, but I'm not going to freak out if I see one. I'll just take a shoe and hit it a few times. Killed one the other day. Those things are sneaky. I hit it really hard one time, and thought it was dead, well, it started moving again so I hit it sooo hard the second time I couldn't find but bits and pieces of him on the carpet and on the floor. It scared me because it was like the dead spider just resurrected and man did I squash that guy.
