There was a spider in my room once. I tried to obliterate him with a large and heavy trash can, but my friend stopped me. That night i woke up with spider bits on my arms. The next night I woke up and I swear, the spider was dangling inched away from my face.
I slept on the couch the next few days...

A wierd and wonderful statistic to keep you awake- I can't remember where I heard it, so it must be true.
Apparently, throughout your lifetime, you will inhale and eat something like 800 spiders in your sleep...

Re: Fyron\'s no longer an Antaran?
the number is much larger and refers to general insects - ive seen that statistic
Kodos, this is a waste. If its a big and flying thing, get a can, can it, put a paper under. Then release outside. If its just a small bug (spider) get yourself a piece of soft paper (tissue paper) and carefully put it ontop, squeeze, grab, remove, throw to trash bin.

That's what I usually do! Only, I use a glass, and run it on small bugs and crawlers as well as fliers. Most insects are actually quite benifical, and squashing them just means cleaning bug juice out of the carpet/wall/table/whatever. Trapping them and releasing them alive avoids that.

Re: Fyron\'s no longer an Antaran?
well, i actually meant a glass bottle or whatever - its just the more convenient. And the worst thing about bugs is they're realy messy creatures - leave lotsa juice. there's even a song on that on russian, translated without rhymes:
"i caught myself a bug
without a trap, without a net
and now my hand
is all in blood of that bug"

Re: Fyron\'s no longer an Antaran?
I usually grab a glass because they are transparent; I can confirm that I actually have the bug, and can watch it crawl onto the paper I slid under the glass so I don't need to injure it in trapping it. Besides, a surprising number of crawling insects have difficulty climbing the inside surface of a drinking glass; it's a mild added measure of security against needing to catch the bug again immediately.
