Captain_Slow Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Jesus! You'd need a cricket bat to kill one of those things as I don't think a typical SWATTER would do it... I wouldn't be seen anywhere near them - put it that way!

Sunnyknight Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Your standard £5 electrical bug zapper will take care of any pests! (which looks like a tennis racket) Remember slowly putting it close to a LARGE spider, and watching the electricity spark through into it. All i remember is, the spider did a little YMCA then died. 4

You're a cruel son of a gun but your description was very funny.

You seem to take pleasure in killing things for fun. Very nice 7

ButterflyMoon Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 They have hornets rather like that in Texas where my son lives and frankly they scare the living **** out of me!! Not to mention the Fire Ants, Scorpions and Rattle Snakes!!!
Sunnyknight Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 You're a cruel son of a gun but your description was very funny. I'm not even joking, it threw some of it's legs into the air for a good few seconds, changing direction. After that, it crumbled. What a nasty little insect you are. A spider (at least a UK one) can't even hurt you, but it does kill all manner of disease-carrying flies. You seem to take pleasure in killing things for fun. Very nice They are big, with too many legs, and run fast. ME NO LIKE! Early sign's of a serial killer Dexter v2 Also, if it's any consolation, i did after try seeing how badly it zaps, so i tested it on my right index finger. Fair to say, it could torture the hell out of a human being lol

Very nice ^ Pretty much what I was going to say. Early sign's of a serial killer ^Also, this. I/We joke about Sunny "sorting people out"... It's starting to seem more and more likely. Fair to say, it could torture the hell out of a human being lol I swear... One of these days I'm going to see your name in the paper because you've gone on a rampage. Edited October 3, 2013 by X-13
Sunnyknight Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I swear... One of these days I'm going to see your name in the paper because you've gone on a rampage. Blame rockstar. lol Back to topic: Has anyone ever been chased by these?

SHimmer45 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 arent those Japanese/chinese hornets as they are MASSIVE
pcstru Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Asian yes. Allegedly the perpetrators of 41 deaths in China.
witch Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 They are big, with too many legs, and run fast. ME NO LIKE! Cowardly, stupid and cruel - ME NO LIKE either 2

pcstru Posted October 3, 2013 Author Posted October 3, 2013 Some people have irrational fears of insects. I had a friend who once startled me by jumping up out of his seat, grabbing a newspaper and then hitting a small spider (which had appeared from under the sofa) before jumping up and down on the newspaper. He then got a hoover and from a safe distance slid the nozzle under the paper so he could hoover the thing up without having to set eyes on it. He was visibly sweating and shaking, my flabber was truly ghasted. Personally I can't stand earwigs. I killed one this morning when it emerged from the pile of walnuts I collected in the garden yesterday. A spider I would have picked up and put outside but earwigs - I just don't want them around.
localzuk Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I didn't like earwigs, until I read about them and found out that the females are very maternal, and will look out for their kids. Think they're kinda sweet now.
Miscbrah Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I'm not especially fussed by spiders but my gf can't stand them. Fortunately we have an extremely predatory cat who will catch and eat them on sight, so very few get seen in the flat nowadays.
Davit2005 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Any spider that kills wasps is a friend of mine as long as it stays away from me
broc Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 My wife & daughter are scared of spiders. I use a large jam jar & a piece of card to evict the spiders. The jar goes over the spider, the card slides under the jar, the spider lifts its feet & then you can invert the jar with spider inside. A quick trip out the door & job is done. 1
witch Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 False widow spiders aside, a fear of spiders is anathema to me but each to his own I suppose. BUT there is NO NEED to kill them. You can buy humane catchers or get someone else to do it. 1
Gatt Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 You can buy humane catchers or get someone else to do it. Erm, do you mean: get someone else to A) By the humane catchers or B) Kill them for you?
witch Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) Either Both All three JUST DON'T KILL SPIDERS *edit I mean either buy a humane catcher or get someone else to catch them Edited October 3, 2013 by witch
Gatt Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Either Both All three JUST DON'T KILL SPIDERS But.. your previous post could be interpreted as reading "don't [you personally] kill spiders, but get someone else to do it"?
