I'd send Dempsey in, but he'd eat it! sick

by Guest Fri Apr 05 2013, 12:49

Logan would try and then be scared and run away. He decided he was gonna get a moth last night but ended up walking into a fence whilst trying to catch it. He's not much of a hunter! Laughing

by Guest Fri Apr 05 2013, 12:49

It was on the wall... I couldnt risk Alfie dropping it and it running off!

I used to keep conkers in my room to keep them away! Didnt work though.. they seemed to get bigger!

by **Sazzle** Fri Apr 05 2013, 13:11

Haha, yeah that what I used to do till I got the spray!! In the corners of all the rooms?!! Laughing

I actually though they worked coz one day I found once rolling about on the floor next to one!!

I really do think this spray works though because I used to see loads, like 2 or 3 a week and now I hardly ever see one!!

by Guest Fri Apr 05 2013, 14:08

Conkers keep spiders away? Why?

Eh, I like big spiders. I don't get why people are scared of big ones, you can see them and run away. It's the little ones you have to be worried about. Also, has anyone heard of assassin spiders? They're so horrible and evil they've been kicked out of Hell, I'm sure:

It's an evil spider. It has a long neck and has really long fangs that it uses to impale their prey and then eat it. EVIL.

by Guest Fri Apr 05 2013, 14:27

I think they're interesting animals, to be honest. Not classically 'cute' as such, but they have a certain impressive beauty about them. Smile

Fair enough Tongues

I've never handled any of the huge variety like this one, sadly. Really want to. Maybe I could convince mum to come on an expedition with me to India/Sri Lanka to look for one! > Smile
