# Scorpions as such I don't have a massive problem with, I can (and have) got up reasonably close to them (albeit behind glass)
spiders however - any sort - just give me the creeps in a big way that freaks me out.
I've handled snakes, insects, bugs and all manner of other 'weird' creatures, but I can't do spiders, or get anywhere near them, without a form of panic attack taking over.
*gets the creeps now just thinking about them*

# Some bloke walked into our offices quite a few years ago and put a matchbox on the counter whilst calmly stating there was a black widow inside
which it turned out there really was!!

# I took this picture
in my girlfriend's garden.


click for big

Spiders freak me out at the best of times, but poisonous spiders really give me the fear.

# I instantly regretted clicking for big then
That really is quite an awesome find in a garden though

# I don't know if I have a real fear of them
but i certainly have a healthy respect. I wasn't going to pick it up and play with it anyway,

Black widow web is pretty cool though - it's incredibly strong compared to normal spider web - it feels like strands of human hair.

# Mine's a real fear, unfortunately, and quite an irrational one really.
I live next to a wooded area and large field, which in the summer attracts literally thousands of the buggers around the area and house.
I should be used to them - and to a degree, the tiny ones - I am. I just go really cold though and then freeze, very silly really, but
I guess it's healthy to be scared of something :)
