Slog - Comments on Arachnophobia http://slog.thestranger.com/2006/02/arachnophobia There is one downside to the first sunny day after many months of rainy, dark, winter weather--seeing your house in the strong light and realizing you are living in a spider refuge. I strongly believe that spiders are our friends--but I still don't need to live in a Munster house.

All's I know is that I am constantly batting at dark corners in my old house in the springtime here. It drives me nuts. Some of these spiders are so big that you can actually hear them hit the ground when they leap from tall spaces.

This is a big comfort for me whenever my house starts to look like Eddie Munster's since my arachnophobia doesn't even begin to compare with the roach one.

and the spiders give my cats something to snack on.

I only have this to say: Peace!

A friend in Virginia was bit by a spider and lost a silver dollar sized chunk of his leg about half an inch deep. Noble and necessary they may be, but they are still creepy and poisonous. Yipe!
