Spider season: Why your home might feel full of arachnids right now

They're not coming through the windows - they were already inside.

www.bbc.co.uk

but it's almost certain that all of us - no matter how much you hoover beneath the sofa - have a load of house spiders in our homes waiting to get out of the shadows and start having spider-sex under your furniture and on the good plates.

Nice radioactive spider in that article too

Why would anyone want to deter the lovely spiders from coming in?

Weirdos like moochedit obviously, but he's a wrong 'un. Everyone else loves spiders.

Bit of a standoff going on in my studio between a Huntsman and a Daddy Longlegs.

On the one hand but at least it stays in the garden. Other spiders please take note and follow this example

That's what they want you to think - at night all spiders go into people's houses and have a party.

Came home tonight and joro has vanished

That's what they want you to think - at night all spiders go into people's houses and have a party.

They like to play practical jokes too so they climb into the cutlery drawer and hide the tea spoons.

They're playing the long game so only do one at a time.

Spider balls

(Last time I explained this to someone I had to clarify that no, they aren't actual spider testicles, which got me wondering if spider testicles are at all ball-like. They aren't, in case anyone else wanted to know.)

I'm definitely calling them penis fingers from now on though

I have a mature male Chile Rose that hooked out. I was most disappointed when I saw his penis fingers.
