I dislike all insects/things with many legs and other bits. Call me a wuss but I can't stand them.
If an insect or spider is dead and not moving I'll inspect it but if its alive I'll run, or casually walk into the next room. Most of the time I don't want to kill them with a shoe or anything for that matter because I don't want to have anything to do with them. I find them intriguing you might say but I like to keep my distance, odd yes.
The other night when I was using the computer a spider (A typical biggish thing with long legs) crawled up the wall behind the computer. I
casually walked into the kitchen as I do and found the fly spray. I calmly walked back and drenched the poor thing as much as I could. The spider then fell down onto the floor around the power plugs and the back of the computer, I didn't really want to spray in that direction so I
tried to forget about it.
10-15 minutes later this beast slid from the ceiling onto the monitor, and gave me one heck of a fright. I didn't want to spray the monitor with fly spray for obvious reasons and resolved to wait him out. He crawled down underneath the keyboard. I didn't have the guts to lift the keyboard so I just sat there and decided I was bored and if I should go to bed, it was like 2am. Five minutes go past and he crawls out onto the side of the table, I grab the spray and soak the thing, it scrambles back onto the table whilst its legs were having spasms. It stopped moving.
Now I had a dead spider on the table, yummy. So I got the spray and tried to spray it onto the floor
, but nope it didn't work. So I got a paper towel cleaned up the over spray and flicked the spider somewhere.
So now I'm as happy as Larry.
Heh, I don't particularily like crawly things.

Are they only in Iraq? Because I live in Las Vegas, and it's a desert...
.. They hide in your shoes that you leave outside. And one more thing, they can kill a human with their venom..
I wouldnt own a Camel Spider, though. They look weird.
