Not only do some spiders bite, most other carnivorous insects CAN bite - but rarely do.

I've (knowingly) been bitten by a ladybird, which wasn't too bad, 'nipped'/bitten by an earwig, bitten in the ear by some bug or other.
A wood ant that objected to where I was sitting (not a wood ant nest) bit me. That was a strange sensation. It was a very sunny day, and I suddenly felt bad sunburn on my leg. I commented on how hot the sun was, then realised, I had hefty boots and jeans on - the sun couldn't penetrate that!
I rolled up my trouser leg, to see the ant scurry out, and a red mark on my leg :-(

But never been bitten by a spider.

A number of British spiders DO bite - and it can be quite painful.
The false widow spider can give a nasty bite and other species (although relatively rare) can also leave their mark which will swell and feel quite sore.

DINNING ROOM BIT HAS BEEN DONE IN NATURAL CALICO
AND FEATURE WALL IN CORAL,STILL TO FINISH LOUNGE
BIT PROB CALICO,
KITCHEN VERY SMALL IS BLUE WHICH I LIKE

Have done my front room in Hay Bale.

Spiders are fearless mothers.One hatched her children in the corner of the front room where she guarded then fearlessly.She squared up to the broom when I took the old webs down.

Why don't you ever see spider dung?

Hmmmm. That would look nice with red.
My question is, would my kitchen 'detritus' blend in, or would it look very 'busy'???

I think I'll stick with paint. Tiny kitchen, fried breakfast, no extractor fan = dollops of fat on the wall :-(

I've finished the paintwork - apart from the door and 1 small bit of skirting. Taking the old blind securers (the bits that hold them in place) down took at least 2 hours and 3 cups of tea :-S
Now I just have to empty the cupboards and 're-jig' the 'stuff' :-( :-(

I'm not saying that decorating the kitchen causes upheaval, but I've just noticed Betty (cat) is sleeping on sandpaper, that has been left on the living room floor :-(

.......and her favourite paper bag has been abandoned!!

ok i did go a little mad but i have a farly big kitchen that can take it
plus i have a fecher wall that i done in briannia wall paper

all right i went all out crazzy

I'm afraid mine is a cream - Natural Calico.
It's so small, if I painted it red, I'd feel like it was eating me :-(

red painted kitchen? well, Silent Witness is back next week. Another cunning stunt from Baldrick.

i painted the kitchen yesterday as well
i got my paint in B&Q only cost me a fiver as paint was on sale

now what color did you do your kitchen
i done mine red

and i was lucky i dident come a cross any spiders

If not, they'll contribute to the food chain ;-)

I managed to eject most of the babies safely into the garden. There's plenty of shelter out there for them :-D

And if you fear for your sanity
flush it down the lavat'ry

If you wish to live and thrive
Let a spider run alive.

I think I found 'mummy' this afternoon.
Decorating is one of the few times I pull domestic appliances out.
Pulled the fridge out, and a spider went scurrying by me. The amount of fluff-covered web behind the fridge convinced me it was her 'home'.
I managed to catch her for identification.

The nearest I can find is a cupboard spider - Steatoda grossa - otherwise known as a False Black Widow spider.
She has now been released, and not once did she try to bite me :-D :-D
(that'll be because I didn't hurt her, and spiders rarely bite)

WE GOT SPIDERS THAT ARE
TOO BIG TO FIT IN A SHOE BOX

LOVE AN HATE TATTOOED ON THERE LEGS

AN WHEN THEY PARTY DO THEY

CREATE A DIN,

I HATE SPIDERS

i don't have cats, and i don't use insecticides as i am asthmatic, but a big foot or rolled up newspaper usually deals with them :-D

Spiders are survivors form aeons ago. They are interesting and some beautiful. Photogenic. Their webs encrusted in dew or ice are a wonder. They eat flies and such which in a house means you don't need to bother with insecticides which the cats hate.

I have at least two species which have set up in my car. No, it has not been cleaned inside since new - no need, don't smoke or eat in it. I clear the webs off the door mirror but they soon weave them back.

No British species bites. Some do in other countries but are rarely aggressive ... except in Australia and you have to have some sympathy there.

rah rah for spiders
