I'm coming nowhere near you lot and your houseguests!

We were just saying how we hadn't seen any at all for some time. You must have nests. We used to have a cat who was a great catcher so that was very handy. The largest I have ever seen in the UK was in a bedsit in Perry Vale where I used to live some years ago. Went through

There are also things on the market called spidatrap (for those who hate writing the word itself obviously,as actors will never say the word MacB@~$) and something else with a handle which you can trap them with. Glue paper as for catching mice is also meant to be good however I don't know how I'd feel if I actually found one struggling to get off one. I've read about plugs that send electrical impulses around the house to scare them off and also bringing conkers into the house as they don't like the smell.

Have you thought about trying to catch one and taking it to the vet? It might be an unusual breed or one which has grown larger than normal due to weather and habitat conditions.
