If you're confused about the names on my title, refer to my friend Cassandra's post here. Unfortunately, I do not share her sentiments about appreciating Charlie! I ABHOR spiders of any shape, color, and kind. I would rather deal with anything but spiders. Seeing how I feel this way, of course I would find them in and outside of my new house. No joke, there were all kinds of webs on my back porch, and when I was trying to wash of my back porch, I saw about 4 different kinds of spiders. Since then, I have killed a big one in my living room and my bathroom. Today I went back outside to check on the situation and saw another big web, but no spider. So I decided to wash off my back sliding door. Right after I finished, I see TWO medium spiders trying to crawl out. I also had some ant spray out there, so I just sprayed and swatted them to death. I finished in the back and went around to the front.
I then saw one big black spider trying to carry its supper back to wherever it's hiding at my house. It was up on my house, and too high for me to reach, so I decide to go get my broom. I got the broom, came back outside, and proceeded to knock the spider. First I didn't get him, but I did knock his food out of his mouth, then I knocked him off the second time. No joke, the spider is like freakin James Bond or something and comes suspending down like he's on a rope. I'm just staring at him as he quickly drops to the ground and disappears into the grass. Dang spider...well at least he doesn't have any supper! :0)
THEN I was inspecting some more (I'm pretty sure if my neighbors were looking, they thought I was insane) and I saw a HUGE spider. Likewise, I knocked down the web, knocked him down, except this time he fell into a bush. I think he was playing dead, but when I tried to move him over so I could kill him good, he suspended back up! I knocked him down again, but this time I have no idea where he went!
I am going to definitely break down and call pest control tomorrow. I can't take any more of this. I HATE SPIDERS!!!

*gasp!* You spider-hater!!
But really, it sounds like you might need to call an exterminator. Charlie is the only spider we've seen around our house - and he stays outside.
Speaking of Charlie, I think he's gone. We haven't seen him in two days and with the weather change and what I know of a spider's life cycle, I think he has passed away naturally. Or maybe YOU got to him! LoL!
I am so with you on the spiders. HATE them. Even David hates them, but he will kill them if I ask because he knows I won't get within 10 feet of one. Even worse though-lately we've had these monster grasshoppers everywhere. I mean, a good 6 inches long, on the ground, in the trees, on the side of my building, on the doors, etc. I hate them too...Mother Nature and I are not on very good terms right now.
Yes, I definetly think you need to call pest control. We have crickets everywhere at school and at home. Have you read Dawson Delights Lately?
you crack me up
