  So we live in an old farm house.  There is about 100 acres of fields behind us.  Occasionally spiders get in.  Spiders don't bother me.  I usually chase them into a glass and let them go back outside. 
  I am sleeping last night.  Since we don't have kids we sleep naked.  I wake up because I feel something walking across my stomach.  I flip the covers back and a wolf spider is on me.  I knock it off me onto the floor.  Wolf spiders can give a pretty nasty bite.  I get up and the wife is like "What's wrong" and I tell her "Nothing, go back to sleep." 
  I looked around and I couldn't find the spider.  I don't want it to happen again.  Should I warn her?  Should I spray our bedroom?  Should I wear some underwear to protect the boys?

We get our house, outside and inside, treated every 3 months against insects/spiders.

Yeti, coming from a person bit by one of those bastiches when I was a kid on camping trip. Don't chance it. Easily the most excrutiating pain I've ever been in. They aren't poisonous, but like a tarantula (sp?) they have a nasty set of fangs. They are supposedly shy and run from confrontation, but regardless, I'd do whatever to keep them out of my house.

If I never see one of those in my life, I'll be a happy girl.

If you wear clothing to bed, Mrs. Yeti is gonna want to know what's up.  So you'll have to tell her about 'ol eight legs.

Just move. It isn't worth it.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

Yeti

Yeah, thanks for that Murp.  I'll be seeing that all night long.

Is this at the new house or the old one?  If it's the old one then who cares?  Just don't mention it when you try and sell.  :D

Yeti

The old one.  I just got to dodge wolfie for 16 days.  I think I should warm the Mrs.

Don't they seek warm moist areas?

I once read that unless you live in Antarctica, you're never more than three feet away from a spider.




Pleasent dreams.
The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

Probably.  So you might wanna cover up your stink hole.
