What do you do when you see a spider crawling in your house?

I pick it up and take it outside, because I feel the need to protect it from my family members...

Seriously, it bugs me that people jump on the "It scares me so it deserves to die" bandwagon. As a race, I thought we were supposed to be 'better' than that.

I don't think you get it.

If somebody has a phobia of spiders (enter me), you can't leave it because you will be on the edge of your seat, some people are too afraid to pick it up or scoop it up and throw it outside and if you do that then the odds are they will be back in your house the next day. Spiders are pests, and where I live, if you don't keep their numbers under control you can end up with an infestation. I don't see the harm in killing an insect.

man up, boy!  I'm sure many people have a crippling fear of Lead Poisoning, but we still have people fighting in wars to make the world a better place!  quit being a sissy and face your fears in a non-destructive way, pansy!  

Nothing wrong with phobias, almost everybody has one.

yep, I know, so cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it!
