Oh my gosh yessss they're coming in pairs. My friend killed one and as soon as he left another one popped up. Oh my, on your bed!!! GIRL THE SCREAM I WOULD HAVE SCREAMED!!!! Did your heart stopped?! 😭😭Did you jump out the bed 😭😭😭 When I was a kid chillin in bed with my mum a spider crawled on the bed, she saw it when the TV adverts came on and it went bright. It was huge. I swear her feet didn't touch the floor. We slept in the living room that night. 😭😭😭😭
@Lorisa unfortunately hun they don’t just come through the window, the are coming through any cracks and crevices in your walls and ceiling/floors. The building I live in is infested with false widow spiders and it is a real big issue! We have had local schools close because of infestations but meanwhile we live in the middle of it and the council refuse to do anything about it! You can use essential oils like citrus to deter them but I personally haven’t tried it to say if it works.. there are also plants that can deter them (or carnivorous ones) you could use also but who’s to say that will help either. The hotter it gets the bigger and more juicy these spiders will become, also more tropical like animals will be able to survive here so that’s what we have to look forward to!
@Shaynie Are you trying to put me in cardiac arrest. About big and juicy.... Girl you better get your ass over here and play spider body guard. I'm too scared to go to sleep. Why did you put the visuals in my head. I could honestly flick your ear through the phone 😭seriously though. You must not be scared of them to be talking like that 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Get some conkers and pop them in the house. 🙌🏽
@Lee girl.. I did scream. It was crawling towards me in the middle of the night after feeding my baby girl. My husband heard me and saw me run out with my baby in my arms. He thought there was something wrong with her but when I told him about the big spider in the bed he ran out the room just as fast as I did 😂 we didn’t get back to sleep that night. I swear we thought we had an infestation.
Spray WD40 around your windows outside and inside the edges, deters bugs xx
My worst nightmare 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩have your hoover nearby and plugged in. Thats how i deal with them 😩
@Lorisa Crawling towards you! I'm sorry but I would have dropped the baby and ran 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looool girl when I'm telling you I get you I mean it🤣 defo on steroids bc ain't no way they can be that big naturally!!! I have a huge phobia and what helps is getting a spray bottle and peppermint oil. Fill the bottle up with water and a couple of drops of the mint oil. Spray it on your curtains, around your bed windows and crevices. It does wonders to keep them away 🙏 also I recommend getting a fly swatter perfect for long distance attacks😂😂😂😂
@Lee 🤣🤣 hahaha sorry about that.. I am terrified of them but having to live in this building with a false widow problem makes me kinda glad that when I see a spider in the house, it isn’t one of them. Their bites can be nasty but pretty much every other spider here don’t or can’t bite so it’s not something that worries me on the same level.. especially having a 13 week old to have to watch out for too, makes me jittery! If I see a spider in the bedroom I won’t be able to sleep until it’s been dealt with.. just waiting for it to disappear makes things worse as it could be ANYWHERE now😱! I hope you got some sleep! Did you find the spiders? 🤦🏽♀️
@Patricia Long distance attacks? Okay let me put this into perspective for you. I almost broke up with my ex because they refused to kill a spider that was in our bedroom. I called my best friend at 3am to come over and kill it. She travelled for over an hour on the bus to kill it for me..... I won't dare try and kill it or get it out. I now pay my neighbour a fiver per spider kill. The phobia is deep 😭😭😭😭
@Shaynie What the fuck! They bite! Girl I just checked your profile and it says you live in London..... What part of London has spiders that nibble on humans 😭😭😭I found one and got my neighbour to kill it. The other one was by the front door and ran under the floor boards. You jinxed it because the second one appeared from under the floor boards right after your comment 🤌🤌🤌🤌
@Lorisa I laughed so hard at your husband running out too. But it's really no laughing matter 😭😭😭I would love to over come the phobia but the reality is I would rather die than have one within a mile of me
@Lee he’s scared of them too but because of me he has to get rid of them. We can’t both be scared. I’d love to overcome it too for my little girls sake I don’t want her to be afraid but it’s too late for me. Hopefully my husband can encourage her to not be so afraid. Why do they have to be so scary and ugly looking 🙈

@Lorisa Its the way they move. How quickly they move. The 8 eyes 😭😭😭😭😭😭
@Lee Lool yeah you’re not far from me… one bus away 😉. I’m in Canning Town and they say the spiders move with the wind and apparently the wind is blowing towards Ilford tonight 😂😂 nah joking aside, even if you was to google false widows and Canning Town you will see so many articles about the widows invasion here and schools closing down🤦🏽♀️ the reaction the bites cause are horrible so I kinda make peace with the other ones even if they are big.. they are all harmless, but these bad babies are not😭. Rofl you got you’re neighbour to come kill it Lool. The other one watched the murder and decided to corner you when alone for revenge 🫣. Try some essential oils in a spray, it should work according to google lol, I haven’t tried it though
@Shaynie Oh my gosh why are you doing this to me!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭I've got massive bites on my legs. I swear I wanna get my place fumigated.... Karma will get you for taunting me girl. 🤣🤣🤣
@Lee bites? Is it one puncture mark or two? Spiders have fangs so if they are the culprit you should have two punctures instead of one. And lol I feel I’m living my karma by having to deal with this building Lool. Sadly fumigation will only clear out what is already in there but won’t stop them from coming in still🤦🏽♀️
@Shaynie the swelling and bruise is so bad I can't tell how many punctures.... I don't care it will kill the beasts that are their
@Lee that’s really strange! You should get it looked at, regardless what bit you, you’re clearly reacting to it!
@Shaynie I Have lupus so my body reacts 10x worse than the average person
@Lee oh I feel for you, my gf has SLE also! Call your rheumatologist just incase its a flare up instead! My gf has a flare up so bad years back that was left untreated she is now been using a crutch to walk for years! I can’t imagine what it’s like!!
@Shaynie I'm deffo having a flare up as well as the bites. I over exerted myself for my sons birthday and now I'm swollen and stiff. It's why I can't sleep. I'm in too much pain and discomfort. I'm so sorry about your girlfriend. Honestly Lupus makes minor injuries and incidents unbearable. Pass on my regards 🙏💙
OMG! This happened to me the other week! One huge one (emphasis on the HUGE) crawled on my bed. There ended up being two of them when I woke my husband to kill it. Apparently it is spider season. I’m with you on the phobia and I have slept with the window closed till my husband bought a net to go on the window and hopefully deter them from coming in.
