I'm afraid of many bugs (especially cockroaches) but not spiders. And luckily there is no cockroach here in Colorado but there is lots of spiders.

I am not afraid of spiders, and I do not want them around me.   If you leave them alone they will leave you alone.
We do need to live with the spiders, because without them we would have a little more insects to deal with.

I do not like spiders at all. They give me the creeps. I do not like insects of any kind. I lived in a place that was full of spiders and it was a nightmare.

Nah. I once caught a spider I had never seen before in my house. It had blue/green fluorescent eyes. Found out after an internet search it is the number 1 biting spider in the US. Very aggressive jumping spider. I released it outside. In retrospect I'm surprised I was able to catch it so easily since it can jump several feet. Spiders eat other bugs we don't need. I rarely kill them.

Ugh. Not trying to be mean, but spiders are gross and weird.
And they are also really hairy
But I also heard from my friend that if you kill a spider it will rain.
Which was weird cause she killed one like the day before it rained. haha.
But yes, I am defiantly scared of them.
(: Smiles makes a better day

I don't mind spiders so much, just so long as they're NOT either black widows or brown recluses. I can't afford to get bitten by one of those suckers 'cause I don't have any medical insurance. However, I would someday like to have a couple of tarantulas as pets - they're so cute!

Yes, spiders freak me out. plus I am allergic to them. One of my friends wanted me to watch a movie once they forgot to tell me it was the movie called "Arachnophobia" which means fear of spiders and there would be tons of spiders in the movie. I almost jumped out of my skin everytime i saw a spider.

Only poisonous ones. I control my fear by taking sensible precautions & killing any velvet-black spider I see with a red hourglass on its tummy!!!!
