   While we're on the subject, for the past few months I've had regular visits by wayward hornets.  Every now-and-again one will show-up in the bathroom floor, on the sink, on my bed, on the bedroom floor, etc.  I've counted around 12 visits over a period of 4 months.  For a long time I was utterly confounded as to how they were getting in here.  
   One night as I entered the bathroom I looked all around, as I'm in the habit of doing now, and saw one clinging to the overhead bathroom fan/heat lamp.  The little buggers were coming in the apartment through the bathroom fan!  No wonder I was seeing them mostly in and around the bathroom!
   I'm also weird about bugs, but mostly stinging ones; bees, wasps, hornets, etc.

Hey, same here. Unless it's a black widow or a brown recluse, I usually pick up a spyder and place it in a plant outside. Crickets, worms, et cetera that do not possess any real threat get the same treatment...

If it's a bug and in my house, I kill it!  The spiders have been pretty bad this year for some reason, and I've gotten rid of a pair of wasp nests in the garage.

I can't stand bugs in the house...eeewww.

My friends mom lives in Bentonville, AR and has huge Tarantulas in her yard.  If they get in the house she just picks them up and puts them outside.  NOT!!!!  I would find a new house. :-X

Spiders in the house don't bother me much.  I know that if I have a spider in the house, I do not have other bugs in the house. (Spiders eat most other bugs).

One thing the spiders don't take care of, though, are the creepy crawly things with a million legs!!! :o :o :o

I hate those nasty things, and I will invite a stranger in to kill it if I have to.  Yuck!  Fortunately, I don't get too many of those.
