    Spoiler all spider pictures, please!

    Like for real.

    Some of us really don't like them to a pathological level.

    Those are nothing, sometimes we get the hairy wolf spiders, those things are an issue.

    Like...when you live in Lousiana with its air soup and 50 billion bugs per square inch you make some weird allies.

    Myself, the spiders and the chickens...we stand strong against the bug menace.

    If it's inside the house and I can reach it, it's being evicted after telling what type. If it's a harmless type (wolf spider and such) they get tossed outside. If I can't tell if it's dangerous and I can reach it, it gets the shoe until I can't tell it's ass from it's legs.

    Unless it's a brown recluse then kill that fuck.

    If I can't reach the spider I remember where it's at and check on it at least once a day to see how they are holding up and if they are useful. If after a week I don't see any bugs in that web once, eviction with broom for not paying rent.

    We have a jar of moldy brown recluse. The husband was laying in the bed and looked down to see one crawling on his fucking neck. We caught it because we weren't certain if he had been bit (he hadn't thankfully) and wanted it just in case we had to go to the doctor. Spider bodies mold after a while in an air tight container. Who'd've thunk?

    I used to have a Black Widow for a tent mate when I worked at a boy scout camp. We had an arrangement. Though watching a Daddy Long Legs go murderbot on her was a time I wish camera phones existed then.

    That's what far shooting bug spray is for. Or vacuums with very long cords and handles then the entire bag goes into the trash asap. It's possible the entire vacuum ends up in a dumpster far, far away.

    The bonus for mine paid out before the hit approved lol
    I wanted to do this again today but I'm not certain if they want you to do it more the once even though I didn't see anything about not taking it again

    You must have had weird Daddy Long Legs. The ones down here wouldn't stand 10 seconds against a real spider.

    Yep we got those and black widows....it's awesome.


    Luckily the chickens can eat the venomous spiders with no ill side effects.... I just have to protect the chickens from the snakes. Thus why we are all in a fellowship. The spiders protect us from the flying bugs and I give them room. The chickens eat the ground bugs (roaches, ants) and the bad spiders and I protect them from snakes.

    I will say I have vacuumed before and then looked into the bin before dumping it only to see a spider walking around in the vacuum. I was shocked it was still alive!
