The Itsy Bitsy Spider.....


[Pu...]

Recommended Posts

So, yesterday morn at 4:45am, I was asleep and felt a sharp pain in my neck (close to my earlobe). I grabbed the area, jumped out of bed and turned on the light.

 

To my horror, a spider carcus was laying on my bed!!! The thing bit me!!!! I FREAKED OUT!!!

 

After washing out the bite with peroxide, I brushed my teeth and hair (in case my hubby had to take me to the ER). I paced and Googled pics of spiders. It looked like it was a typical American House Spider. I was fine, but freaked out ALL day.

 

I went to Whole Foods and bought peppermint spray as spiders hate peppermint. The other thing is that I wear earplugs to sleep (I'm very sensitive to sound during my recovery). That thing would have probably crawled into my ear had it not been for the plugs!!! Yikes!!!!

Where did you use the peppermint spray?

 

I have several bites on me and have found several tiny spiders in the house in the last week. I wake up with bites. They itch like crazy! I get big welts. I think it's the spiders, or a flea that's gotten into the bedroom.

 

Does your neck itch? You feeling ok now?
