I totally freak at the sight or thought of them. Even now I can feel their little evil legs crawling all over me! I have been known to use exteme measures to avoid them...throwing things, shot a couple with a shotgun, might have burned up a few things...I just don't like them. I know macho! Give me a snake any day! Those spiders are horrible...used to think I was scared of small spaces...it was really the fact that I might not be able to get away from the spiders.
