You see, I think spiders are incredibly interesting animals. But I really can't look at them. I guess my Mum screaming every time something with more than 4 legs appeared had a lasting impact on me. So having one next to me while I sleep is nightmare stuff to me.
Depends on the spider. I would not want something like a huntsman spider, but I don't mind the small ones that just sit in their corner webbing.
I always say that I don't mind spiders. They're very respectful. They stay in their corner and eat the bugs I don't like.
That's the spider's way of paying rent, in our household. If they come out into the spaces where we are, it goes against the rental agreement, and they are ...evicted.
I too have the same policy in my house. Respect each other's personal spaces, and we're all good
