Our Newest Invaders

The carpet beetles are awful this year! They keep flying in through Ziva's dog door- blech.

But the worst are these hairy black spiders! They are HUGE! They crawl around, watching you. Even though they're on the ceiling, I nearly always gasp with fear when I spot one because they are just so big! Then, when I suck them up in the vacuum, I can feel them go through the hose! EEWWWW!

Ok now my skin is crawling and i'm like looking all over scared to find one in my house. I hate spiders!!!! EWWWWWW! And your crazy for sucking them up. I have a canister vac and that would mean that it would be crawling around in my vaccum. No thank you!!!! :-)

Those spiders were always around when I was a kid and I remember one time having to suck it up in the vacuum because my parents weren't home and I still swear to this day I heard it scream...but I know what you mean about them watching you...kinda creepy!

Seeing those pictures just makes my stomach turn. What is it about spiders that just makes my skin crawl?

I have found that windex is also an excellent spider killing tool. I just spray the spider and then let Shaun clean it up later (since he doesn't seem to mind them like I do).
