I hate them

This is one of my worst fears lately. My h told me to watch for black widows because he reached his hand under the sink to turn on the water when we just moved in and there was a black widow just sitting there. Blech.

That's a black widow, right? Those are what nightmares are made of. At least for me. OMG.

 Where does she live?

I was telling my coworkers today that I'd rather have a spider in my house than a mouse.

I feel like I'm alone in this.

I wouldn't know the difference between one spider to the next, but my reaction would be burn it down regardless.  Knowing it was a black widow?  Oh hell

I feel like I could trap/kill a mouse more easily, ya know?

I agree. and I fucking hate spiders and think mice are the cutest. but one spider is easier to handle than one mouse, I think.

Rolls in a ball and cries while rocking back and forth.

We don't have poisonous spiders here. I don't think I could deal. Nope.

I'd probably run to that crazy water slide to get away from this.

[Jalapeñomel]

I hate rodents.

That spider is big. I would also take a photo.

[fuckyourcouch]

Dude, what?

Corral adorable mouse into box, release into outdoors.
Kill spider with fire for its crimes against humanity.

You're not. I would prefer this as well. Though that goes out the window when said spider is a fucking black widow. *shudder*

Seriously though, right before we moved out of our last rental, we learned there were mice in our pantry. I was so fucking disgusted and so happy to be leaving that place. There were cracks and holes all over that house and it was super easy for them to get in.

Ugh, noooo.

Before I moved to this building, I lived in an apartment with a mouse problem.  (Maybe that's why I'm scarred?).  They would run across my kitchen counter at night and I could hear them.  One died in my kitchen behind the microwave and I only realized it a few days later because of the stench.

You're welcome!

[iamali]

I have snakes. The hardest thing about them for me is touching the mice (well, rats now) to feed them. HATE.

YUCK.

I'm anti rodent.

[snickers]

Ewww

in my house:

• scream incoherent things for approximately 4 seconds, husband emerges with tissue saying, "WHERE IS IT?" spider is eliminated.
• spend 30 minutes convincing husband that NO, you cannot keep the mouse NO, you cannot hold it, NO GOD DAMMIT IT'S NAME IS NOT TIMOTHY PLEASE JUST HELP ME FIND IT AGAIN OR I AM NEVER GOING TO GET TIMOTHY OUT OF HERE.

lol gross!

A friend was dogsitting for us. We got home and she was telling us how she went to open the pantry and there was a mouse just sitting on one of the shelves at eye-level, nibbling on a cracker. She thought it was cute. I wanted to hurl.

My damn hunting dogs were completely useless during this time.
