And I can’t bloody find it now! I watched it scurry under there but by the time I got the spider grabber (humane!) it’s disappeared under there.
I have a fear of them. Is it likely to scurry into my mouth overnight Sad.

Really ? Would you really become an arsonist and lose thousands of pounds over a spider? you’d get no insurance as arson is arson ….really ? Over a spider 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes everyone suggesting this is being 100 percent serious. 😑

Pretend it's not there.
Go to sleep.

The spider won't stay under the bed overnight - all spiders (except Australian spiders) are scared of the bogeyman under the bed and the banshee in the wardrobe. It will probably find a safe place to hide under your pillow.

They just want to scurry from A to B without being seen by you or anyone else. It’ll be off down a crack and under your floor by now.

Exactly, it'll be a male house spider on a mission to find a female, just popped out and hurriedly looking for the next hidey hole.

Burn the house down and leave.

Warning.

Leave before burning the house down.
Otherwise good advice.

Thanks all, I eventually fell asleep and was not awakened by 8 long legs on my face!!
I would never hurt them, it’s just an irrational fear of them I have. I do quite like them in an
