It's just fear. That's all. Fear is fear, and it can only be combated by direct confrontation. Avoidance only makes fears stronger and gives it all the more room to stand.
Try squishing spiders with a piece of tissue or a shoe or flyswatter [or have someone else do it untill you think you can]. Hey, once they're dead, they can't come back and get you, nor tell their friends where you live! Kill them mentally too. Have confidence. (and even if you aren't religious, praying is proven to boost confidence and morale)

If you want a definitive solution to this, the only option is psychoanalysis. Hypnosis does NOT work, this was clearly proven by Freud himself; results would be positive for a few wees, and then people would relapse, usually worse then before....else, why do you think hypnosis is NOT used on a regular basis, even though it seams cheap in means (one or a few sessions and voilá)??
Sorry to break the news, but its going to have to be a good long deep psychoanalytical treatment......
Best of luck to you.
PS: Or, you could just learn to live with it......... that's what I've done.........

Spiders are icky and funny looking, maybe that is why you fear them. Some people just hate ugly things.

You have one of the most common fears called arachnophobia. If this fear is debilitating to you, I would suggest considering hypnosis ... it has been successful in helping people with the same fear.

I have to get my girlfriend to deal with all spider-related situations. Yet I can pick up most other critters; ants, crickets...

Maybe you had a scary experience and someone threw it over you or you weren't expecting it
