You can make a monster look beautiful Danny!
Stunning! Picture perfect!
Mosquitoes are responsible for around 1,000,000 deaths per year. Approximately 475,000 people die every year at the hand of a fellow human. Snakes kill at least 50,000 people annually. Dogs kill 25,000 people yearly. Tapeworms kill 2000 people annually.
Spiders are not even in the top 15 of man killers & some are truly deadly. The false widow is as good as harmless & is certainly no worse than a Bee or wasp sting.

I used to have an imaginary pet spider called Osborn, I was very fond of him. Sadly one day he escaped from the imaginary terrarium he lived in, and I never didn’t see him again.

Let me guess. You tried to pretend, but it just wasn’t the same.

Man is a much bigger danger to wildlife, than wildlife is to man.

Had this neighbour one time in Bexhill, he use to try and shoot the baby squirrels and then one day a shot went over my head…one of my very explosive moments occurred
…it did stop completely after that and I can remember telling him just that…he seemed deaf to wildlife, quite a heartless person.
I had meet his brother a couple of times and he was not like that thankfully, and he did tell me he had the most enormous scar on his back as he had been attack by somebody with a knife during his working life…He said he dare not say anymore which got me wondering…
Seriously think his state of mind was not normal…the neighbour had said to me, he had to kill the babies to stop them growing into adults…That is sick.

Back to spiders …
“I could never have killed it, I love animals too much,” she told the Eastern Daily Press.
“My partner was petrified but I took it to Kirkley cemetery and set it free.”
I bet she’s popular with anyone visiting the cemetery,

My daughter as a child was petrified of any spiders…size did not come into it, they were in my mind a threat. We had a small enclosed Porch and she knew that spiders often were in there, hiding of course, so she would peer around the door, and no way, come rain or shine would she cross just one step to put her key in the front door at the sight of a spider…often in the corners on the ceiling…

Very true. I loathe people who kill for the sake of it - unfortunately there are a lot around!
