How do you fall asleep...

After finding a spider in your bed? Seriously. I was just laying here, lights off, reading through some facebook posts when I felt a brush on my upper arm. Turned the phone to shed some light because I thought it was a hair but NO. Freaking spider. So now I'm all keyed up and my bed is no longer a safe place : (

    You don't sleep.

    Never.

    Never again.

    Honestly, I'd sleep on the couch until I gutted, cleaned, and raided the whole room to make sure there were no more. May not be much comfort to you.

    One time a spider was just above garage door opener. So I smashed it against the wall. My wife said "i'll get a paper towel." I said "No, leave his carcass there as a warning to the others". Spiders seen in my garage since this event = 0

    LOL.....good....go to sleep now :)

    No more spider!

    I warn all spiders that I find in my home...you shouldn't have come in here...didn't the other spiders warn you I would eventually find you and kill you? If they didn't...sorry bout your luck! WHAP! :) No more spider!

    This happens because I was bit by a brown recluse last year....and still working on paying $6,000.00 in medical bills all from one little bite that didn't need to happen!

    When I moved into my apartment it took about a week and I was finding brown recluses everywhere! It was only a matter of time till me or my children got bit. I kept telling the bug man that comes, spray some real killer stuff...you know..not the stuff you spray to attract bugs so you keep your job here!!

    Place a bomb in my room. Step away and wait for it to explode. Seriously... Spiders suck. Literally.

    Ummm yeah, no, no sleeping. Maybe if you moved to another room that might work. Me? I'd just stay up.

    I once called my husband who was 3 hours away on a business trip because there was a spider in our room. He laughed. I then called my BFF who talked with for about 2 hours until I could work up the nerve to kill it. If it weren't for the fact my kids were already asleep we would have slept elsewhere.

    I've had this problem before!

    I had a spider (I'm talking huntsman) decide it was going to just chill out in the door way of my room. I was too freaking scared to go downstairs so I waited.....and waited...probably a good half hour before it moved. Then I legged it downstairs to get the so called 'one shot kills' raid. More like, 'one shot does eff all and you need to unload the entire contents' raid. In doing so, I'm yelling, 'Die motherf****er'.

    This was at midnight.

    I didn't sleep until 1.30pm. The whole "Can't sleep, spider will eat me" was there for ages. Fun iPod music kind of helped.

    I'm pretty sure I saw a brown recluse in my basement last week; we have a shower down there, so I still think it was one...even though I've never actually saw one that I know of....I am still laughing at your post, because you should hear how I talk to bugs here......dang:laugh:

    Couch, if you're worked up. But there could be worse things (if not poisonous). We all share the planet. You could think of it as an unattractive roommate. If it bothered me & was slow, I'd probably scoop & evict vs kill.

    yep. i'm not a big fan of spiders but i'm in touch with reality enough to know that they are all over my condo, even if i don't see them.

    and in reality, without them, there'd be a helluva lot more bugs and ishh around.

    cockroaches and palmetto bugs, on the hand, are nasty little ****ers..

    I think the warning carcass is being too nice to the little 8-legged a-holes. I am encouraging the inhabitance of some rather quickly growing lizards that took up residence in my garage. I bring them stuff to eat just in case they have over-hunted the spider population. My garage is more bug-free now than it has ever been.

    I read it a bedtime story until we both fall asleep. Friends with 8 legs are the best.

    I sleep on the couch when that **** happens.

    (And I live in a cheap apartment with a big tree by my window; I find them on my walls a lot. Only once in my bed, though.)

    I actually proposed a similar situation to my roommate the other day but apparently lizards gross her out even though bugs don't. Too bad. I really wanted some house lizards.
  • One time I was in bed and a mouse ran across my hand so I freaked out and flinged it as hard as I could, then I heard a thump, so I turned on the light and there was blood on the wall and a dead mouse on the ground in front (((((:

    on average a human being swallows 7 spiders in there lifetime during there sleep. You just caught in time before it went creeping down your mouth.
