I was playing a video game last night when I noticed something move out of the corner of my eye — there was a beast of a spider crawling along the edge of the ceiling. I could barely get close to it without getting the shivers. It was the biggest spider I have seen in years — one of those ones so big you can actually make out its face. It was disgusting, but I couldn't kill it because it would have stained the wall.
I grabbed the broom and plucked it from the wall, but I lost sight of it. I managed to find it a couple of minutes later next to the couch, so I went to put a glass over it, but it started darting around so I had to retreat. It went under the couch, so I pulled the couch away from the wall but I couldn't see the spider anywhere. So then I flipped the couch, to see if it was clinging to the bottom. Wasn't there either, but I did notice a hole in the bottom that it may have hidden inside.
In the end, I couldn't find it, and ever since I feel so paranoid. It's in here somewhere, but I don't know where. Every so often I'll get a tingle and have to have a quick look around. Whenever I move something, I have to do it suddenly, in case the spider is underneath and it gives me a heart attack. I don't mind the spiders with tiny bodies and big legs, there are a couple of those here, but I can't relax with this chunky beast lurking around. I'm sat on the very couch it escaped under right now, and just thinking about how it could be beneath me gives me goosebumps. I wish I whacked it when it was on the floor. I wonder when I'll encounter it again.
How do you deal with spiders? Do you condemn them all, or only the big ones? Do you catch them, or kill them on sight, or perhaps you leave them? I almost always use the glass and paper method. Last year I remember seeing something poking out from underneath the door. I thought it was a chunk of hair, so I brushed it with my bare foot and 'the hair' ran away. Turns out it was a humongous spider. I managed to catch that one, and another big one a couple of years ago. Here's a picture of the latter. It's in a pint glass.
