I felt i had a truce with the ones that were by my garage door. I would walk past them every day for a couple of months. But then my parents decided to kill them. I then decided that i love spiders, and that i am getting a pet tarantula.
on a side note, i have washed and dried the same pare of apple earphones over 10 times and they still work like brand new.

I got bit by one last weekend. I had to go to the doctor on Monday, because it got infected. The antibiotics cleared it up , though. First time I've been bit by one that I know of.
No clue what kind of spider it was.

Yeah it grows until its 4-5 years old and they generally live 6 years. Mine is 2 I think.
It's called a Pinktoe tarantula.

My relationship involves occasionally capturing them and throwing them onto my cousin when she pisses me off, Shes deathly afraid of them.

I let them be... for the most part. Don't crawl by me or your getting squished, but otherwise they eat all the things that cause diseases and shit so by all means its a mutualistic relationship.

Depending on the creepyness of the spider I will either just let it be or catch and release it. Spiders are creepy but they are more scared of you then you are of it. They have such an alien figure and are probably one of the ugliest of insects but they definitly serve a mostly beneficial purpose. Now silver fish, mosquitoes, knats, ticks and any other bug that continuously flys in my face, ears or eyes I will without a doubt not hesitate to kill.

I was chilling in my house the last time I saw a spider. I transported it outside. My last trip I thought of fear in general-- I decided that anytime I feel fear, I will face it head on. The battle won't end there.

A couple days ago I killed about 100 baby spiders just hanging out right outside the basement door to my house. I'm all for nature and balance but fuck, thats 100 less spiders creeping into my house with just a few seconds of my time spent. Fuck those guys.

Getting a quick trip big cup and using the straw it was kinda easy sneaking up to a big spider, (big to me, not a small one) holding the cup next to it, and flicking it inside with the straw. and for reason they can get a grip on the side of the cups and cant crawl out. hold them for a while eventually release it outside. Not directly next to my house though, into the back yard behind my fence. that was like 2 years ago in the summer. i actually been lucky and not as many have came inside and been found walking around this year. those bastards, everytime i saw one inside i would pitcure myself sleeping and it crawling onto my forehead and biteing me or something
