How to save a spider and why it's important - no fears, eyes (8) open :)

in nature •  7 years ago  (edited)

Most people are irrationally afraid of spiders. Those 8 legged creatures can be seen as "specials", however they are an integral part of the biosphere of Earth, and deserve to be treated equally, gently and fairly.

However thy home is the outdoor, and I keep my place spider free... or at least I try.

But how to do it? some people know that it is fastest to take one big leg and throw it back to the outdoors, however I am still not courageous enough and my fear still block me. So here is my safe, 0 risk solution to handle such monsters :)

  • Here is the invader :

as you can see, putting a glass over it, is in my opinion the best solution to neutralize the threat and stop all intentions of escape... because once they know they are hunted, they quickly start their hyper engine, over drive moves, and may find unattainable retreats. And I am speaking from experience. So a simple take the glass, aim at the middle, drop. and the intruder is caught, unarmed. Some will get super aggressive in the trap, other will play dead, in all events, a swift move (to not break the glass or hurt the lost invader).

  • Second step

A sheet of paper, slowly moved below the glass... no escape risk.

  • 3 Step

fully trapped, but as you know the paper is too flexible, and may lead to an involuntary release of the invader while being carried to the outdoor... not good, we don't want that.

  • 4 step

move something hard below the paper, like a flat plastic square, or cardboard, anything goes as the paper sheet keep the glass locked.

Then once it is on the rigid thing, just calmly and proudly bring our new friend to the outdoor where it belongs.


Now that being said, it is important to remember that life on earth is a all. Everything is connected, and don't believe for one second that spiders don't speak among them... do you want to be the enemy of the spider kingdom? you have to be crazy to want that... And why take a life when a peaceful solution is possible? Furthermore I believe the more you release, the less will come, as they will know that it is not a place where they are welcome and will share this intels among them.
