That spider had itself situated near a cupboard that I needed to get into, and as I reached up to open the cupboard, the little bugger dropped down on my head and proceeded to scamper down to the backs of my shoulders. I don't remember anything after that, except coming out of a dark haze and finding spider carcass smeared on the floor. 
On the plus side, my heart did finally manage to find its way back into my chest after that.
Not much of a arachnid killer myself; most spiders are good to have around to keep other bugs in check. But we did have an infestation of Hobo spiders ride in on a shipment of produce one year. Not sure if I ever really found one, but the local news had reported them as being dangerous, so I pretty much killed any large spider I hadn't seen inside the house before (and that did not look like the less ambitious Fox spiders). |
I had an outbreak of those tiny annoy little ****s called fruitflies a few weeks back because my borhter left a slice of watermelon out for about 36 hours while I was at work, when i got home I relocated a spider from behind the radiator in the bathroom to the kitchen, fruitflies ceased to exist within 24 hours, and after that the spider appily moved back to his old quarters.
Though when spiders drop from the ceeling to dangle in front of my face they have another predator to deal with, should I break their silk, which I will, my cat kills everything that moves, occasionally tries to attack my legs aswell. Ohyeah, the only things my cat gives a wide berth to are bees and wasps, he used to hunt those aswell untill he got stung, now he stays away from those ****ers.
