They are only little, but they are sooooo creepy. Do they give off some chemical that makes us scared of them? Am I right to run screaming out of the room or should I find love in my heart for them? Uughh!

I am afraid of spiders too. My mother was terrified. My kids are terrified as well. My son is a grown man and he will not kill a spider.
As children if we see adults that are afraid of something we will be afraid also. Our parents and other adults are models. So if they jump or scream at the sight of a spider we will sense danger and be afraid also.
I used to babysit my niece from the time she was an infant until about three. Her mother was not afraid of spiders but I was. My neice got her fear of spiders from seeing me react to them. My sister in law tried to teach my niece not to be afraid of them, but still she was terrified. I believe that I was probably the first one she saw react so she inherited her fear from me. I suppose if our first experience with one of those nasty things happened to be a good one we wouldn't be afraid.

I think it's because of the way they treat their prey, by sticking them with their mouths on a stalk and sucking their juices and dropping their little dried out carcasses on the window sill.
But, have you seen what a preying mantas does to a spider? It may make you weep with compassion for the spider. Well, maybe not. But, anyway, the preying mantis will catch the spider in his front legs that have the saw tooth's on them and saw parts of the spider off and daintily eat them.
Hmmmm,
Anyone for lunch?
Thanks

**** that i'd rather find love for a psychotic man-eating lion beast that has acid for blood and lasers for eyes and shoots killer bees out its ***.
if you want to run you run girl. one of the biggest guys ive met was an australian bloke called doug and he was terrified of those creepy little monsters aswell..even the little non poisonous ones we get in scotland.
so it doesn't matter we all have our phobias at least ours isn't really a weird one like being scared of teabags or something.

Because ignorance breeds fear.
I suggest you learn about them, become aware of the very few harmful ones you may have in your yard, if that, and learn about how needed they are in the garden!
I worship my spiders. They eat aphids and bad bugs, helping me keep an organic garden. I also get a kick out of their " lunar module from the 70s" appearance...
