Especially ones that go scittering across my wall as I am trying to get ready for my day!

The dog saw it first, so of course I have 60 pounds of mutt trying to climb the wall making the spider run! The dig chases the spider - The coffe table never stood a chance!! grumble

Dogs barking crazy - spider caoming straight for me - my tough 16 year old son runs screaming from the room!!

Grabs bug spray - should have checked that it was pointed the right way as the dog knocks me down while doing another lap around the room!!

I hate spiders!!!

So my day now begins! grumble :angry:

Get Ortho Home Defense, safe to use & works great.
Spray around outside of house, helps keep bugs out.

Most of the nurses where I work hate spiders. I am the official spider smasher. I see so many going as I walk down the halls. They don't bother me. The nurses are a lot of fun. Don't just watch it; Kill it.laugh Get that thing away from me.laugh What is real fun was the other day when I squashed one and it had babies and they went everywhere. This one nurse really freaked.laugh

Sage - Thanks for the tip!! I will give it a try but I am not holding out hope. Tried so many things and they don't work. The spiders live in the trees and drop on the roof and come in that way!!

HillFolk - Could you be hired as my official spider killer? bigsmile

Sure, Ella. flowerforyou One of my charge nurses who is Aquarius is using her creativity after writing so many notes in the maintenance drop box to try to get them to get rid of the spiders. After I kill a fairly large spider she puts the spider in the drop box after she clear tapes the spider to a nurse note paper making the spider officially documented. She tapes it to the nurse's station glass wall and any where else where it is noticeable. If I know her she will start taping it to the maintenance door after a while.laugh
