Good girl. I always relocate them also rather than the reflexory smoosh. I saw a brown recluse in my bathroom this morning and I had no choice but to spritz him. I have been bitten and it ain't purty. He was huge. I hate that but this time I had to protect my tissue from being digested from the inside out. I still have a hole in my leg from my last episode.
The spiders have been extraordinarily bad around here this year. I made a deal with them a while back, but they broke it - never come upstairs. They can stay in the basement, but keep out of the rooms where I eat, sleep and...well, you know. Since there are so many of them, it may come to violence. Yes, I must transform myself into a stone cold killer...like when I worked security at Disney World.
Holy god that had to suck. One of my favorite webcomic artists was bitten by a brown recluse. It was scary (don't click if you're squeamish. If you're only kind of squeamish, it's prettied up a bit more in this picture)
Mine didn't get that bad but we have a "spider bite" emergency clinic and i guess there are lots of these suckers down here and black widows all over the place. I am so glad I never got to that point. Just a gleeming hole that seeped clear liquid for 5 days. I treated it as a zit and clawed, poked ,and dug at it until it went away.
You were lucky to have great treatment! I think his problem was that they hadn't figured it out right away and that's pretty crucial with that kind of bite.
I can't believe anyone would *smoosh* a granddaddy long leg! They NO BITE!!!! They are very beneficial, also. (pats self on head for using a big word) No moosh or mash 'em!
Valerae --- do me a favor please. Next time you put " don't click if you're squeamish " also put " this means YOU YGRS, you big dummy! " OK? Thank you... ewwww. &:o(
d'oh! I didn't look at the " pretty " version the first time because the UNpretty version made me woozy. So gullible me looks at the " pretty " version just cause YOU mentioned doing it now, and . . . NO!!! The second one is NOT so much prettier!!! It's still horrible! Stop it Val. You is skeeering me.
I'm sorry YGRS! I sort of have a morbid fascination with gross people problems. I used to enjoy watching those surgery channels back when I had cable. Yeah, I have issues, I know.
heh-heh...that's ok...I know you're not TRYING to skeeer me. But gross people problems really make me queasy. ugh..... My daughter Sarah likes watching all of those surgery shows too . . . you and her would get along fine! &:o)
Yes! I'd moosh one of those in a heartbeat! T and I spent the night at my mom's in the country and -omg!- spiders galore! Tony got this strange look on his face and calmly told me "Mom, there's a spider on you". I went nutz. "...Where?...get it off!! Is it off me?!!!" Poor Tony! lmao!

Yeah, ok! ;)

Lauri, you know he's going to return. With back-up.
As soon as a bug crosses the threshold into one's living quarters, there is no decision or judgement call needed. Just kill. Exterminate.
Or, if needs be, shine the Batcat symbol in the sky.
DB - be careful! You were lucky this time, but take caution so there won't be a next time!
