Hive account@fractalizer To tell the truth mate I was shit scared of Spiders for over half my life and would squeal like a two year old having a lollipop taken away from them whenever I ever got close to one. It was not until I moved to North Queensland and had a job that required me to walk through the webs built each night, in the dark each morning, by Golden Orb spiders that I learned to deal with that fear. Their webs are very sticky and strong and HUGE they wrap around you when you walk into one and of course the spider is usually sitting in the middle looking for a way out of there.

I used to use a cheap plastic garden rake , waving it before me like some sort of sword to protect me from the Evil demon webs, but then I found that the spiders just crawled up it and ran up my arms and onto my head anyway which drove me into hysterical fits of body movements that resembled a person on fire, but not knowing what was alight, so just slapping himself everywhere just in case that was the spot the Spider was.
Cant imagine what the spider was thinking at the time.
A few months of that Cured me, Stumbling into the stables half drunk, getting covered in Icky Sticky Golden Orb Webs just became the norm and I'd flick those long legged Arachnids of me like you would a bird poop off your shoulder.
I figured out they didn't want to be there any more than I wanted them there so we were both on the same page.

Thanks for the reply fractal :)
