Oh we had a massive amount of daddy long legs in our old apartment =| it was horrid, and they always choose corners to crawl up in? luckily now not anymore but with the garden we have in this house we got all those big fat black domestic spiders :|
It's probably coz of my mom, someone once told me that children who see their parents get really freaked out about something they can take over that behaviour of fear =p and my mom used to petrify when she saw spiders
Whats weird is that I am much less scared of tarantula type spiders?! probably coz they look more like furry animals? if I had to choose what kind of spider to hold i'd go for those =p it's the boney, evil man-eating looking creeps I'm afraid of
Lizards I am not afraid of AT ALLLL =D I even worked at a local snake/lizard/amphibean (<- spelling? :P) museum where I had to deal with huge iguana's and really big snakes and stuff, i loved it
and gecko's and such are reallly cute
There's this guy in our zoo who helps people with their spider phobia's so I might try that one day.. problem is that you have to look at them and touch them =| why can't I just hit it with a long stick? it wouldn't help but hey one less spider
