Default OT - house spiders

Yes, I think it is a very small possibility. :-)

I do remember waking up one morning a couple of years ago to find a house
spider on the pillow right in front of my face, it's only ever happened
once.

We don't get the fearsome ones here in England, only in the zoo.

Yeah, I did indeed ask. (Thanks) (Wincingly) But even with my
acknowledged arachniphobia, at least for the large ones in dark
places, and years camping in the dampest Maine woods, this
possibility seems small to me. I hope I'm right!

I always let alone the ones in the gardens, no matter the size. They
do in a lot of earwigs, flies, and worse.

It is the ones which seem to live under the cabin, under our
farmhouse, in drains, and surprisingly on the boulders around our
northern lakes, that bother me. Or at least I think they do (!)

And I have seen some fearsome creatures in our mercifully distant
southwestern states. But thankfully that does not involve Maine!
