Crush them, clean up. If they're big enough I try to keep them. I never came across a tarantula. I would totally keep that as a pet.

So the forgotten Spider story...

This happened when I was 5 or 6. I don't know. Everything before 10 is a blur. My dad planned to take us on some trip to the city, and in order to entertain ourselves we decided to bring some toys because the "are we there yet" game was getting old. I found my old Godzilla bag (2000...) in the garage and I rummaged through it finding some forgotten toys. Awesome! Nostalgia at the age of 5! I jumped in the car and we were off.

We were on a freeway bridge driving at a safe 100 km. I hugged the bag to my chest staring at the seat in front of me. Then I saw something moving. Crawling up slowly from the front of my bag to the top. It took me a few seconds to process what it was. First were the front two legs, then the next set. Then the body. IT WAS A FUCKING TARANTULA!!! THOSE MOTHER FUCKEN BROWN BLACK HAIRY ASS MOTHERFUCKERS ABOUT THE SIZE OF MY 5 YEAR OLD'S FACE STARING ME DOWN!!! I screamed and flung the bag to my sister. She screamed. Anarchy in the backseat. My dad swerved to the side of the freeway put the brake on max to see what happened. My sister fled the car, and my dad rushed to the backseat. He flicked the tarantula out of the car and probably off the bridge. I remember that there was a greenish yellowish stain that remained on the middle seat then on, which I actively avoided for the remainder of my time with that car. Moral of the story. Check your bags. Thoroughly! To think I stuck my whole arm into that bag!

probably ignore it, it'll help get rid of mosquitos and shit anyway.

unless it's one of the big fuckers with a health bar, then i'll have to do something about it

big spider , small spiders it doesnt matter as long as i kill em
(small ones GROW)

Am i the only one who has a pet tarantula? Any ways they usually don't bite unless you aggro them

Tarantulas are not spiders

But they still have eight legs and the capability to spin webs...most of them.

Well in quick reaction depends if its small or big if its small then squash it would be fine but if it comes out as a tarrantula then damn man I'm running away xd

Actually, they are spiders. Sure, they might be unsual but they are spiders. And yes, they are true spiders.

Squish dat guy and throw away his guts. Nu Spiders 4 me.

I usually see house spiders. Oftenly 3-5 cm long. And I like these little guys! I don't keep them as a pet but I kinda feed them mosquitoes that I catch alive whenever I get the chance.

how do you catch a mosquito and feed it to the spiders while it's alive?

It's possible to feed a spider...I have done it outside, but not inside. Though I find them fascinating and important elements of our world, when they cross the border into my world (aka, the house) they are doomed to become veeeeerrrrry thin versions of their former selves.

I have several types of spiders I see regularly, so I won't bother describing them. They all die, and that is enough for me.

LOL "Health Bar" ...... I have had the misfortune of facing down some of those:

*Whack* -- not dead. *Whackitty whack smash* -- still making a break for the safety of some floor vent. *KA WHAMMMOOOO* -- its not freakin dead yet!! *THUD-GRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDD* --- damn. It's finally dead but now I have to clean up that huge mess....
