I accept it, I just really want a flamethrower ready in the bathroom now, a really big one.
Unless you are in Australia most spiders cannot hurt you at all, and even most of the ones that can bite you will not kill you. There is no good reason to fear them.
We should stop killing animals just because we don't like how they look. I just keep a jar and a piece of paper around so I can throw them out of my house if they are in the way.

I live in Denmark, and oh I will gladly annihilate any spider in my house, it shouldn't be there in the first place, so I'm just defending my home. They can be outside, they should just stay away from me (generally along with most other insects thank you very much).
Now I know they cannot really hurt me physically but I really can't handle a big spider, I cannot get myself to get close to it, and I have a very hard time going to sleep for several hours after I've seen it, so I would say that it hurts me mentally, and at least if I kill it, I know it will not appear somewhere else.
I do see your point and it is very valid and I applaud it, but where spiders are concerned I just won't budge, they gotta die if they get in the house.

While you are correct in that most can't hurt you, that's precisely what makes is a phobia. It is an irrational fear.

but where spiders are concerned I just won't budge, they gotta die if they get in the house.
I agree. When outside, I leave them alone whenever I can. But as soon as they get inside the house...

I’m not like that with spiders (though I don’t like them) but I am terrified of bees, especially wasps. Wasps are evil. I bet Hitler secretly used them as his agents because he knew they were just as bad as he was.
