Christ Almighty!

Why do these bastards always come out in September? The other night there was 10 of them in the kitchen so I just closed the door and dared not to go back in until the following morning D:
 
That's why you let Spiders build webs. :cheese:

Or close the windows and use a fan.
 
Well get a tube of deodorant, a lighter and... use your imagination:naughty:
 
Daddy longlegs are completely harmless. They're not even scary.

We used to have millions of them around our houses in Alaska. They were awesome. Everywhere you go, there they were.

Unless you're talking about these...

In which case that's creepy as hell.
 
There's a simple solution. It involves a shoe...
 
Crane files and daddy long legs scare the shit out of me.





:(
 
Got loads of them, and loads of the harvestmen spiders which look almost the same too.

Beautiful.

No Icky-Wicky Spider's here, LOL
 
I remember plucking a few of their legs off as a kid and watching them attempt to regain balance. Hehehehe.
 
There are absolutely millions of them here. I just saw one get eaten alive by a spider though, so im feeling a little better.
 
Bloody annoying things. Had a few fly aimlessy into my screen and some have been flying into my wall aswell. I hate killing them. I feel really bad about it.
 
I actually rather like spiders. Now centipedes, on the other hand... D:

Hmmm...:| Anyways you do know that they are poisonous right? But their fangs can't pierce our skin but they can with other bugs. Watch Mythbusters!
 
I actually caught one of them under a glass at a gathering at a friend's house. Then I stuck my cigarette under it to gas it Holocaust-style.

Some sissy in the room started crying and yelling at me because I was apparently being a cruel bastard for killing an insect.
 
One landed on the windowsill as I was washing up. Bored out of my skull, I amusingly poured soap liquid onto it. Another flew into the shower as I was (believe it not) showering, and got swatted by what he assumed to be, torrential rain fall. He was promptly sucked down the plughole.

And that’s as interesting as the Daddy long legs invasion gets for me.

Not the ones I found. Even if, their venom is practically harmless against humans.

They busted that myth...
Their fangs can pierce skin, I can't remember how poisonous they are, but I believe it wasn't very much. Just enough to paralyze a small bug
 
Daddy long legs don't bother me. It's those damn centipedes that freak me out. There was one on my ceiling in my room once. It was tricky trying to kill it without it falling on me :o
 
Ok to cheer you up from all the freaky stories..

I captured several of them in a tin that had 11 flake bars in. I'm wondering what to do with them.
 
I wonder if our natural aversion to spiders (well a lot of people) is due to instincts left over from days when our ancestors were mouse-sized marsupials, and had a chance of being eaten by a large ****ing spider.

Geez. I did not need to see that.


The other day I had a nightmare about centipedes. I was in my old house in Alaska for some reason. Anyways, I saw a centipede crawling across the ground, fairly large. No big deal, or so my dream self thought. Then a bit later, I saw another crawling across the wall. Then even later, another, and then some more. Before long, there were centipedes everywhere about me, flooding the ground, skittering across the walls, and even across the ceiling. Then they all started to attack me, crawling up my body, and some were dangling down from the ceiling on webs. Like ****ing spiders, they were rappelling down from the ceiling onto me on webs, and the way their bodies were arched with the sticky webs being spun out between their legs was the creepiest ****ing thing I imigine in a dream.

<shudders>
 
You should live in the furthest North part of Alaska, where it's so cold that not even ice itself can live.
 
I had a centipede run across my bare foot this summer. It was NOT PLEASANT.

Pwned: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daddy_long-legs_spider Look for the "Most venomous?" section and read up on the Mythbusters episode. Adam Savage put his arm in a tube full of them. He conquered his fear of spiders and managed to get bitten by one. And it did create a momentary burning sensation.
