Hi,

Does anyone know where I can buy a humain spider or general insect catcher?

Preferably one that sucks up an insect, but the grabber type would do.

A glass and piece of cardboard is wearing a bit thin.

Cheers,

Chris

House spiders are mostly harmless and beneficial. Human property rights mean nothing to other species. There was spider habitat for millions of years where your home is now.  "just wave as they go by."

Thank you for your reply,

I'll try quoting your answer to my girlfriend when she's standing on a chair horrified, and I'm trying to catch it with an upturned glass and cardboard.

They might be my friend and your friend, but I know there's no spider on this planet that my girlfriend will call a friend of hers.
