We just spray it with bathroom cleaner and it dies. Good spider killing trick. haha!Shelbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08616652610175250927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435478428925276638.post-77209184942865904952011-04-14T22:17:05.727-04:002011-04-14T22:17:05.727-04:00Lori, I knew that happened to someone and I was te...Lori, I knew that happened to someone and I was telling Ben about it. And, I know what you mean about being traumatized. I'm constantly searching for spiders in corners and under furniture. I wear my shoes and/or socks all day now!

I did the EXACT same thing, because Nate was at work, and do you know what happened? The minute the shoe hit the GIANT spider, 100's of very miniscule, homeless spiders began running around. I was absolutely MORTIFIED!! I have no idea how that can occur, as I thought spiders laid eggs. Those eggs must have been VERY close to hatching, because they scampered all over my tile floor. I was absolutely traumatized...for DAYS!!!!!!! Couldn't even close my eyes. Shortly after that, I witnessed one of the cute, green tree frogs that liked to hang out on our glass patio door EAT a smaller, cute green tree frog. That's right...gobbled it right up. At first, I thought it was "helping" the smaller one to safety, as it only put the lower half of it in it's mouth. But then, gulp, and it was gone. TRAUMATIZED, again!!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03031892726344037527noreply@blogger.com
