In honor of the black widow spiders  (a mommy, a daddy, and from the looks of it, a whole lot of babies on the way... ) that my  mom found on her patio the other day, what sorts of things give you the willies? I never had an issue with spiders. Until now.

I don't like spiders, but I have a specific fear of brown recluse spiders. Have you seen some of the bite sites from these little devils? Geez.

I don't like spiders, but the worse ones I can think of are the centepedes. When I was young, we lived near Flieshman's Yeast plant, and they imported a million of them or more, to take care of roaches or whatever was in their buildings. Of course they went forth and multiplied and were soon all over everywhere. We lived a couple of miles or so away and we saw them in our home, and I will never forget how afraid I was of them. I left my baby who was about five months old in the middle of my bed to get a diaper right behind me and when I went to pick him up saw one crawling on him and it scared me so bad, I just laid the baby down and yelled at the thng. Lucky they have so many legs they run fast, and I got a shoe and took care of him Just thinking of that makes my skin crawl even now.

ticks!!!!!!!!!! We live in the woods and my husband has a landscaping business. It is not out of the ordinary to sit on the couch where he or one of my three sons have sat and fill a creepy crawly feeling on my eyebrow or the back of my neck, reach up to itch it and feel a tick. Augh!!! I Scream every time....
Once, I had to call someone over to my house when I found one on my son's head while we were home alone.
After ticks, I hate slugs.

Roaches........when I was in Lebanon, we went to visit a relative who lived on the 12th floor. It was hot and humid so instead of climbing the stairs we decided to take this old elevator up. It only had a flimsy gate instead of a door, and there was no light in it. It creeped along really slow and we were getting antsy being in total darkness and not knowing how far up we had gone. My boyfriend lite his lighter and on the walls of the elevator shaft, you could see these huge roaches just roaming around. That was the last elevator we took.......yuck........
