Since you seem so keen to confess... what exactly is your policy as regards spiders in your bathtub........

Speak up man!
While in the shower the other night i saw one of those spiders that look like a 'daddy long legs' without wings,climbing frantically to avoid the hot water. I immediately turned the water temp' down to medium and pointed the shower head away from the spider till it made it to safety.:angel:

Ahh yes, sometime referred to as Cellar Spiders.

Seeing as you can identify spiders Dave, can you identify different kinds of flies? I ask because there's one type that has a kind of metallic blue/green body that is particularly filthy! Even dirtier than a bluebottle!:ohmy: These things actually reach a dog dump before it hits the ground! They seem to have a system that alerts their species to such things and they all flock to such filth in a split second! These damned creatures are the lowest of the low!!🧐

Just looked up 'experts on house flies'. I didn't get a result,but i found this about how to get rid of them. What intrigues me is why does he have what looks like a rifle with a silencer attached in the corner of the room? :unsure:

Good thing they're about, to be honest, or the streets'd be a foot deep in dog dirt, pigeon poo and worse in no time flat.

There's a shot in Raiders of the Lost Ark toward the end where a fly clearly lands on Paul Freeman's mouth when Indy threatens to blow up the Ark. I'm sure he swallowed it!.
