Ohhh I am terrified of spiders... was up all night just last night chasing one that was on the ceiling above my bed... the dogs were so confused, we got into bed and seconds later I'm screaming "Get out, Mya Ollie OFF NOW" so I could get out from right underneath it... Tried to knock it down with a pool cue but it got smart and ran and hid... needless to say no one got much sleep last night, lol.
My worst story happened years ago.. my first dog, Freeway, was very sick.. he needed outside, and so I let him out and stepped out to follow him just to make sure he got down the stairs ok. Well, a spider had laid her eggs in the eavestrough and the babies were chosing that exact second to make their getaway. I walked right into hundreds of spider strings and what looked (and felt!) like thousands of baby spiders... they were ALL over me! I freaked out, ran into the house and got the Raid and drowned them all... Got Freeway inside using another door so he couldn't eat any of the poison soaked spiders... and hopped in the shower, clothes and all... lol... I then had to wash down the entire deck to make sure they were all gone and it was safe for Freeway to be out there again.
I still get the shakes when I think about that day.. it was one of my worst nightmares come to life! I'm sure Freeway thought it was quite commical... just glad no one else was home.. lol
