Flypaper is amazing...and spiders will crawl in you nose and ears when you are sleeping....
Those hanging fly traps work almost as well as spider webs, without the side effect of spider babies.:)
I have flypaper but they avoid it. they're evolving :angry2:

I submitted the vacation rental qual. Now it's out of my hands but not going to lie, I won't be too disappointed if I don't get it. Last time I bombed the second round after getting the first round right and it was a major time sink.

Or yeast, sugar, and water in a jar with a funnel made out of paper in the top. Works for fruit flies, at least.
yeah I've dealt with those too, because of my upstairs neighbors and their freakin' beer cans. The ones I'm dealing with now are huge house flies. they like to buzz around my head and land on me. ugh

There is a quiet, spindly spider that barely seems to move in the far corner of my bedroom right now. I like it; I like leaving my window open and I'm pretty sure it catches bugs for me.
However, the speedy little freak that zoomed out of the recycling pile yesterday? Got stomped to death immediately.
They say spiders as well as centipedes are good at getting rid of ants, flies and roaches.
So as someone told me do I want a couple of spiders around or a bunch of ants, flies or roaches? I think I will take the spider in the web.
lol.

oh god gross I shouldn't have googled that. never dealt with those before.

I'm gonna start posting tiny notices on my walls telling them to pay rent or gtfo
I'm thinking about getting a job :cautious: Like next year. But I want to get the certification done and I think it's going to be several months of studying.
I've been kind of halfassedly looking into something like that too. But I don't want to take any more loans out and it says the work-from-home jobs are rare and go to more experienced people. boo.

I usually try to catch and release if I see a spider in my room, and 90% of the time it goes nicely. If they are slow as hell, they dont pose a threat to me, they just go into the cup with cardboard underneath and they get to live another day outside BUT... if that thing starts moving at lightning speed I will scream like a little girl and freak the eff out. I dont know why and I cant control it. My brain just sees the speed and instantly its the scariest thing I have ever seen.

The drains in the house just need a good cleaning. They have heart shaped wings, right?

Seems today is slow regarding mechanical turk surveys. Don't know why, could be because school week just started and we came off a holiday.

It's like lizardbrain recognizes a potential predator or something. It's weird, but I think it probably happens to a lot of people. *raises hand*
