But over the last week we have had four of these spiders in our house. The first one totally freaked me out as it was hiding behind the computer and there was no way I was going to relax with it being there. So a huge thank you goes to my neighbour, Becky, who I called upon to rescue me. The next spider made his appearance the following day, making me leap up and spill my hot cup of tea everywhere. I wasn’t impressed! This was removed by my husband using the old glass and piece of paper trick, but he doesn’t like spiders either so there was a lot of chat beforehand with “why me” and “do I have too” . We had a couple of days rest before spider number 3 appeared in the bath. My son said “Mum, we have a large bug problem” before insisting I take a look. I couldn’t look, so as it was late at night the vacuum cleaner was called upon. This did result in some joy however watching my son use the vacuum, a rare occurrence indeed, and I made sure he vacuumed other rooms afterwards so the spider didn’t crawl back out. Now, today, spider number 4 has appeared and it has yet to be removed. I know where it is, so as long as it doesn’t move I’ll be ok. It’s crazy isn’t it to be so scared of spiders but I know I am not alone. That’s Autumn for you, it brings them all into the house to keep warm! Whatever you encounter this month be brave, and stay safe!
