I am a severe arachnophobe and there is large, brown spider in my living room.

I believe it's been drinking as it has fallen from it's web and is lurching about the carpet, swearing at my terrified cat and waving a fist at it. There is a very small Volkswagen parked haphazardly under the sofa so it looks as if it might have driven here under the influence- I would try to wrestle it's keys away but that would mean getting close, and actually finding them as they must be very, very small.

I have also heard that many spiders carry razor blades and I don't want to get hurt; it's taunting me about my mother's obesity and so need to do something quick- what do you recommend?

Id try reasoning with it
It's drunk so if it trys to stab you well theres more of a chance itll stab itself,
however spiders are very cunning creatures and they sometimes manage to bite you while using that fake razorblade as a distraction so have 911 on speed dial.

If you cant reason with it well you are like 100 times bigger than it so just squash it.

But if you make the right decisions both of you should be able to walk away from this dilema without a scratch.

Ring Jerry Springer and he will come over with a Spider Wrangler and you can both be on the show with, let us not forget, your fat mama! Ring Volkswagen and get royalties, or Jerry's sister might do that for you. If there is a brand on the razors, and/or the keys, get them in on the act too. Get your cat to make a statement. After your mum has lost the weight, she can go on Oprah and other shows. You can make a lot of money from this predicament.

If you suffer from Arachnophobia, (A fear of spiders and scorpians) like me, then I would advise for you to hire a cleaner to just clean up your room for the day. Dont tell the cleaner why, they'll think you are strange. Don't tell them it's your room, say it your sisters and she is very messy but it is her birthday and you want her room to be tidy. Say that you don't know where to start and need proffesional advice. The cleaner will now be so chuffed that you called her a pro that she will do anything. Plus it will be fun to see her scream when she finds it. If you really are scared and think it's venomous the call pest control or something.

Take a large beer glass. Put the beer glass over the spider and slide a piece of card between the spider and the surface (wall, carpet, etc.), take the glass, with the card held firmly in place and deposit in the garden - if you're really scared, deposit in neighbour's garden.
I heard that placing a conker in the corner of the room scares spiders shitless, but since I'm not afraid of them, I've never tried it.

Place a glass over it quickly, slide a piece of thin card under the glass then lift it gently so as not to drop it, take it outside and disburse of it in the garden somewhere safe, then run back inside very fast and lock all the doors.

OK. You need to stay calm.

Right, take a breath and slowly approach the spider, carefully from behind. Now say in a firm voice "hand me the keys or I will have no alternative but to make a citizens arrest".

Hopefully it should sober him up enough to be sensible.

Good luck and be careful.

Ok Honey, don't panic. I know just what to do.
Go next door and find the oldest old lady you can. Bring her over and tell her to "Sic 'Em". Its been a while since she had a anything "wriggle and jiggle and tickle" insider her so you will be doing her a favor.

ok, now stop panicing please, I am scared of spiders too, put gloves on your hands right now and get 10 pieces of tissue papers and get the spider off the floor and quickly tell someone in the living room who is not scared of spiders to quickly get a thong and stamp the spider and you still wearing the protective gear pick up the spider and chuck it in the bin outside or inside your house

Fly spray - lots of it but make sure you do not stay in the room once you have sprayed it. It will run round in circles and give you about an hour entertainment - it will then die and you will be able to hoover it up
