Folksy Friday: Spiders!

Invasion of Eight Legs!

Have you noticed that when the weather gets colder, visitors appear in you home, those of the eight legged variety. Don’t get me wrong, I think they do a marvellous job and I think spider’s webs with dew and mist on them are very pretty, but I do prefer to choose who to invite into my house.

In my home, the large hairy ones, that you see from the corner of your eye, as they scurry across the carpet, are always called Fred. If hubby is available, the Fred is trapped under a glass and escorted from the house, but if hubby is not home …. then the children are called to carry out the duty, and the hairy visitor is evicted, humanely, they usually take him across the road and deposit by the large oak tree, then run back, hoping that two long legs are faster than eight short ones.

  2. Oohh, I love spiders! What a beautiful selection of spidery items!! I have one on a necklace, it gets mixed reactions of 'how cool' and 'urgh, how can you wear that round your neck?'!!

  3. Natalie - do you know that a bowl of conkers near a window will stop spiders coming into your house. Honestly! I've done it the past 2 years and had hardly any arachnids in my house, but still loads outside... try it!
