Aheeeeam… yup… really I still call mommy or whoever else to kill them for me… especially if they appear suddenly…
But why? Where does it stem from and why not try to get over it?
From where I was a lil kid and one big black scary awful spidy thing was running on my blanket…with me under the blanket… 
If you have advices I’m glad to hear…

LMAO 
My advice is get used to being around them until you’re indifferent to their presence. Unless they’re lethal, then obviously run.

Well in Italy there are few lethal species from what I know…
If I don’t die before "getting used"to them…
Serious q: @DavidZinssler what do you find in them?? Why do you have them as pet?? (If I can know… )
Because they’re quite impressive as creatures. Also far easier to own than a dog or a cat.

I might have been cruel to my little brother as a kid 
he was scared of vacuum for some reason so one day I corraled him in a corner using chairs and turned on the vacuum right next to him 
the bright side is he lost his fear 
I just might’ve gotten a licking for it
Problem fixed in less than 1/2 hour
Hey @lpfan61 what’s in that corner right there? 
go check while I grab a couple chairs

Scared of it? How come? I persoanlly loathe the sound to the point where I can’t be in the house when someone is using it. That’s the one chore I will never do.
I’m not exactly sure, this was…12-13 years ago maybe 
he was like 2 or 3 at the time
I just remember he’d run from the room the second he would see it and cry if he had to stay in there
Lol to live by the broom will be a hard life bro

I remember being terrified of getting a haircut at the barber when I was maybe 2 or 3. Ended up having my grandma do it in the kitchen sink lol. I think I finally got over the fear around age 4 when we found a place I liked. lol

You can always smash the spider with something. You’re a lot bigger than they are you know, it just takes one good hit and they’re done for.
