and on seeing some of your replies, average size of spider discovered in house is about 8 to 12 cm leg span (not stretched out even) or the little ~2cm whitetails. and i have a lot of 'stuff' and good spider hiding places hence the freaking out when they run. the freaky looking ones are usually smaller and more compact, about 5cm. spiders are firmly the boyfriend's domestic duty. i keep jars, cd spindle lids etc in most rooms. but i aim to keep a well sealed house (and car!) so i can just avoid the whole issue. i'm ok with them outside, just run in the opposite direction. we have the world's giantest woodpile and my father likes to lay a new fire whenever the old one is burnt. and it's an open fire so perfect invasion potential. paranoid? not much.
