Spiders

A Spider in the bath! Try the golf ball method. Put the plug in making sure the plug chain isn’t too loose. Tap the side of the bath with the golf ball to make the little devil move, then release the golf ball from the end of the bath, so as it rolls back and forth, it will within a few seconds squash the invader. My record time for a kill with one golf ball was 35 seconds. 15 seconds using 2

 

last i heard tigers missed the cut
was it a golf ball in the bath:-d

 

Well, I don't play golf, so I don't have any golf balls.... I would simply snatch up that spider with a tissue, and flush it.. It wouldn't be bothering nobody that way:-D

 

Be careful TEECEE, It’s well known fact that if you grab a spider in a tissue and flush, they don’t die, they turn into water spiders, bread and emerge when your sat there meditating :-D

 

I have still yet to understand how the beasts get there in the first place with most systems having a water trap under the bath (do they have small aqua lungs)

 

roflmaoroflmao To Die For!

I don't know about spiders but it's a shoe in with palmetto bugs here in Florida. I know for a fact those suckers are die hard. I watched one my mother stepped on causing it to snap in half leaving a type of ligament string connection between its' head and back half and it still" continued to try and get away. Not happening with my mom. The second one she stepped on and as TeeCee does with spiders, my mother did with this Palmetto roach and flushed it only to watch it surface to the top and try to craw out of the toilet bowl.I watched it after she flushed again. After 2 or 3 flushes my father came in the bathroom asked what she was doing and took the bug outside and put it in a bird feeder. No More Bug. Happy Birds. For the longest time I would constantly look in the bowl when I had to take a :crap as it takes a little longer to do than the other http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Disgusting/toilet.gif :-o
Take into consideration I was in my teens when this happened.

 

You guys want to talk about spider kind of bugs. I got an issue in my place atm (I am tring to battle) And tomarrow I am cleaning with some more bug spray. But google "house cenepede" and it will come up with a nasty little sucker. Anyways I was on the toilet and 3 in once .5 in thick atleast wiggled super fast between my ft while (taking number 2) and ever sense I wake up with big on on my pillow, or on the toilet alot and even earlier today one on my window next to the computer, and even a small baby 1 incher came across the keyboard.. Just so nasty.. nothing harmful I did some research on em, but just something that big and constant around here and moves so face! Just makes ya look around more.. Thats what made me think of this story( I now check toilet and ground for bug) Big version http://www.cynical-c.com/archives/bloggraphics/capt.lon80608311303.britain_lon806.jpg and baby http://www.cynical-c.com/archives/bloggraphics/capt.lon80608311303.britain_lon806.jpg

 

If you have spiders you're more than likely to have house centipedes. So to alleviate the problem mix you some vinegar and water solution in a spray bottle and start spraying where the spiders are. They hate vinegar.Yeah it might smell like a salad for a couple of hours or so just air frebreze air freshener around.It's non toxic to humans/pets and coast a heck of a lot less then the bug spray that chokes and harms you. I have spiders that live in my bedroom ceiling. Two different kind and when they start getting aggressive with each other or hang out over our bed I'll give a shot around the perimeter of the ceiling and we won't see them for almost a year maybe longer. I try not to bother them as they help keep control of the rest of the creatures that slide through the cracks(so to speak). I WILL KILL the brown/tan ones with the long legs,(no not "Daddy Long Legs")Those suckers get Huge here and leap pretty far at you if they feel threaten.

 

Hey tony, they aren't going into the city sewer... They are going into my septic tank.... I doubt if ANYTHING can live in that! :-D

 

We’ve got a enormous septic tank here in England its called Northumbria

 

Ours is a lot smaller.... only 500 gallons... Just big enough for 2 people :-D

 

No sh1t

 

Wow! A Jacuzzi tub with a difference! :-o

@ Tony:- Tried your method of spider elimination. Didn't have a golf ball so used my bowling ball instead. Spider dead in 3 secs., however, I'm still scraping squished Huntsman off the bowling ball.rolleyes

 

Jacuzzi ??? I don't think so! uke I like the tissue & flush method, because then I don't have to scrub the innards off the tub before I use it :-D

 

3 seconds? Must be some sort of record,Phantom.
Spider bowling for the Summer Olympics next?

 

I have no idea what that means. And I don't think I even want to ask!...roflmao

[Edit] Oh yeah, The spider execution method, (I'm a bit slow today, LoL!). Those Huntsman spiders over here get pretty big nearly hand size for a full grown specimen, so spider squishings can become, errm shall I say - ugly! :yum

Most spiders around the house are really harmless and help to keep other insects and flies in check.

That tickled me :-D Need to get my head out of the sewer.

Spiders I pick them up with my 'bare' hands and put them back on the wall to carry on catching the flies,Ahhh tough man points and softy girl points for not killing it.

 

My son does exactly the same Ricky, and he's 27yrs old, and if you kill one he goes banana's and says " what did you do that for it might have been out getting food for its kids " :-D, but i tell him he's stupid but he insists that you leave them alone, so we do now.

 

Oh,no, I don't pick up spiders.. I don't mind them outside, they can do their thing outside, but NOT inside the house..

@ Phantom: If we had spiders THAT big, I'd get my husband after them! I'd run! :roflmao

 

Its a little different over here though,our spiders are smaller than us.

EDIT bravery is inversely proportional to spider size.

 

I usually have a policy of live and let live for all living creatures, including spiders. Except for Red Backs and White Tails - Better them dead, than me in hospital, eh.

 

Ok, tony, this means war... You tricked me in this one! That wasn't nice you know! Now, you will have to keep an eye out for the bomb squadron!
This one is coming right at ya! View attachment 118127

 

Hey TeeCee no offense but the Dove of Peace won't touch Tony. You need to call in the artillery. Here let me call him for you......HEY HRLOW2.....WHERE ARE YOU! :-D

 

Serves you right. Its like using a elephant gun on an ant:-D

 

My Peregrine’s waiting:-D

 

Little miss TEECEE sat by a laptop
Looking at posts all day
When along came a spider
And sat down beside her
Ate her daft dove an scared her away.

 

OK, that isn't a DOVE. It is my Lead Bomber in my Squadron.... He is coming to get cha tonyhale.... You cannot hide... I also have an Eagle in my pocket! Oh, just so you know, I have a whole FLEET of those guys! They Are armed too! All I have to do is pull out the CORKS! :-D

 

Look Out Below!!!!

Little sir Tony was sat on a chair
Playing with his friend called Renis...

:-D

 

What chance does a Peregrine have when an Eagle couldn't get the job done?

 

hrlow2, tony thinks he can send a Peregrine after my birds, and I told him I had Eagle backup! I think the Eagle trumps a Peregrine, doesn't it?

 

Eagles are the ultimate avian raptor.

 

Absolutely! don't let him get away without a few bombs now...! I have the Squad "unplugged" and they are on the wing!!:major

 

I told you TeeCee to call hrlow, now look what's happened! He's sent the spiders after you. Time for the big guys:-D

Let him send the spiders! I am NOT afraid of spiders.. I don't mind spiders as long as they are OUTSIDE. Just not in my house.... BUT, tony went too far, and tricked me, so now I have the SQUADRON after him! And the bombs should be dropping ! :-D

I see hrlow2 is here, he will help keep tony in line...

 

OOOHHH Tony you are in trouble now. :-D:-D:-D

 

Heres TC and one from the heavy artillery squad.

 

Also saw 'trucks while I was out.

 

Hi hrlow2, I see the Squadron is on target, and the gang's all here, now just to wait for tony!!!! And how did you get that pic of me? :confused I'll have to be a little bit more careful where I post that stuff! :-D

 

Thought you looked pretty nice in that.
Friend should keep people at bay,though.

 

Hi hrlow2, yup, friend will do just fine I see he hasn't showed up.. Friend must be doing the trick

 

...And just what are those corks pluging? ...Guess I shouldn't ask. ~ Eeeew!!..http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g309/Zobor/jawdrop.gif

which one was teecee

 

Yeah, right. We are called England's best kept secret for a reason. We are a beautiful county. Not like Merseyside. The only place in Britain where you can ride a bike, stick your hand out to turn left and some bugger steals yer watch. Apologies to Halo. But I'm just saying.
Hale Village, the anus of the world.

Anyway, when TeeCees pigeons dump their payloads on you, it will be the most wonderful thing since Man Utd were thumped off Barcelona back in May. Michael 'Judas' Owen. He's from your part of the world, isn't he? Shitbag central.

 

Go on JOTS son one for the northern lads, although in saying that you'll have Tony telling you to,
"kaarm down kaarm down kaarm down" :-D !!

 

Fine way to be talking about your friends Tony.
