Don't like bugs, don't like people like bugs.

I have an understanding with the spiders. Outside, I leave them alone, Inside, as long as they stay out of my face, I leave them alone, understanding that they are useful in keeping all the other bugs out of my 60 YO house. And mostly it works well for me. I have to clear webs out of my studio quite often, and I'm pretty sure they feed on me at night when I sleep.

The missus kills them for me when needed......

The one oddity, I think jumping spiders are cool. I hate them, but at the same time I think they are really cool.....

No other critter bothers me in the least.

Bwuuhahahaha my nefarious plan worked

When my dad bought the house in 73 he would say 'don't kill the house spiders (the little ones), they kill bugs.'

We were kinda overrun after a couple years.

DQ I agree about the snake thing, I've never had an issue with them. Clean and quiet.

I don't much care about them one way or the other, except that I'm the designated spider killer. Do wish they'd built their webs where I didn't wind up with them stuck to my head.

Now I don't like water moccasins or bumble bees. They're all evil tempered bastards, and I pretty much kill every one who comes close to me.

"The man is then left to watch a fake new show anchor describing how "former songstress" Miley Cyrus is being evicted from her trailer park for "refusing to stop defecating in his neighbor's yard." She was also "reportedly" arrested for "cooking meth in her double wide."
