How do I get my new 'friend'out of my house

I was chilling with baby when I heard a big commotion in the dining room blinds, I thought a bird or cat was stuck in there, but it's a huge dragonfly! Honestly the pic doesn't do it justice, it's massive.

How do I get this out bearing in mind my fear of insects, my legs have gone like jelly. I can't get too close, it was flying so erratically earlier I'm worried it's going to land on my head or get caught in my hair or something!

Had one of these trapped in the vertical blinds in our conservatory. Luckily it was stuck next to the double doors so i was able to open both and use a newspaper to nudge it out. Thankfully it didn't decide to head INTO the house ! Good luck !

I just have to tell you ….. that I read your post before I went to bed last night ….. and I woke up panicking at 4am … cos I had a nightmare … that I was having a wee and a GIANT noisy dragon fly (with a full on face) came at me and I couldn’t get off the toilet , I couldn’t stop weeing and So I was trapped and panicking and hysterical 😂
