I need help, according to friends and family..

Yeah, I'm deathly afraid of spiders and scorpions creep me out , too I've tried to get over that fear and planned on getting a Tarantula once. So I forced myself to research them. The whole time I felt sick just looking at the videos and pictures. I just couldn't do it.. But perhaps one day

A bunch of crickets chirping nonstop is not bad and kind of soothing, but back when I had a Bearded Dragon I had the odd cricket get loose in the house. When it is just a single one that decides to chirp here and there, it is VERY annoying. Esp. if you can't find it, LOL!!

Me too. I get the heebie jeebies when i look at spiders espcially big ones like tarantulas or bird eater. I saw one on FB and so i wanted to learn more. I googled them and read about them and then i made the mistake of looking at the pics and videos on goggle and oh man, i kept feeling like something was crawling up my legs haha. Scorpions arent too bad but i wouldnt want one in my house.

And you are braver than me saying 'perhaps one day'. For me, there is no way on gods green earth a big spider is going to be living in my house. I literally would not be able to sit around or sleep lol.

Yeah, when I say "one day", it means most likely never.

Every so often I see a post about a spider and read it, and people seem so attached. It makes me think maybe I can do it. But I can't.
Its funny at the horse barn. Whenever people see a snake, they scream bloody murder and then holler for me to come and identify or remove it.

When I scream bloody murder everyone knows there must be a spider around. I have this weird thing, its like a toilet cleaner brush head only bigger, on a long stick. I mean long. You can extend that thing to 15 feet, LOL. That is what I use to clean cobwebs in the stall. Even then, the whole time I have the feeling of stuff crawling all over me. I want a hazmat suit for cleaning cobwebs. A bite proof one.

I was washing my horse once and felt something tickle the back of my shoulder. I kept waving my hand around, thinking its a fly. It kept tickling so I looked over my shoulder and a BIG FAT widow is sitting there. Those big round ones (females?). Oh yeah. I think THAT scream was probably heard throughout the hemisphere. I screamed and slapped at it after throwing the horse brush into blue yonder. My poor mare. Already quite sensitive, she got a heart attack, broke loose and ran away, thinking the world was coming to an end. The big fat spider fell on the ground and I stepped on it (sorry spider lovers, it was instinctual). The whole time I was shaking and feeling sick, thinking it must have bit me. But I guess it didn't. We have brown widows all over there, supposedly they are more venomous then the black ones, but less aggressive?

We also have huge spiders out there, fat and hairy, too, UGH.

Spiders! (shiver)
