    Hubby is petrified of them though!

    I voted a little afraid. It depends on the spider and where it's at.

    I really like spiders a lot. I love taking pictures of them.

    I took this picture of a Yellow Garden Spider two days ago-

    I said a little, because it depends
    (a) if it's on me
    (b) how big it is
    (c) and if it catches me off gaurd and scares me ((in which case I would be afraid))

    I freak out if I walk into a web because I don't know how big or what kind of spider's web that was

    I like pet spiders tho like terantulas ((sp?)) are fine with me. Infact, I'd like to get one sometime.

    I picked a little afraid. Because it depends on the size and location of the critter.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    no, i'm not afraid of them; i doin't like to hold them or anything but if one is in the house i usually ick it up and throw it out the back door instead of killing it.

    After a bad reaction from a spider bite years ago I don't pick them up any more but I'm not afraid of them.

    I put a little afraid; it depends on where the spider is and how close it is to me.I once saw one on my ceiling. I didn't try to kill it, because my fear of heights is bigger my fear of spiders.

    I like spiders - I live in a basement apartment, so I need them and the 'pedes to keep the other critters under control! But I don't like walking into a web and getting web on my face. For some reason that annoys me. I'm getting better about it, though.

    I used to be scared of house centipedes until I looked them up and found out two interesting things:
    • They eat ant eggs. I don't want ants getting into the cat food.
    • Their jaws are too weak to penetrate human skin - they couldn't bite me if they tried.


    So, I guess it's an ecosystem. I need the predator bugs to keep the nuisance bugs under control. Smudge thinks they're all terribly boring and ignores them, except flies and the occasional moth!

    I do NOT like spiders at all,

    Maybe that's why it's been raining so much around here lol,

    Of course I would never touch them or go near them so..

    My mom does all the dirty work, I go completly crazy when I see spiders.
