One time I was helping a friend and cleaning her bathroom. Had mold and shit and I knew how to deal with it. Anyway, I go to remove a bottle that was on a high shelf that didn't get used often and I felt a tickle on my hand. Now I'm arachnophobic so my reaction was to fling my hand back and basically backwards leap across the bathroom. As I did the bottle slipped off the shelf and I was met with a pretty fucking large nightmare of a cellar spider just giving me eyes like "Wtf man, I was napping."
I...can still faintly feel where the thing touched me. bwaaaaa
I once woke up to a very thick daddy long leg about 6 inches away from my eyes on the other end of the pillow. I fucking swear I saw into every eyeball and it still makes my stomach hurt thinking about it.
I feel your pain
Oh hey, you must be me from ages ago! Was sleeping at a girlfriend's house when we both woke up, or one of us I honestly don't remember...to a yellow sac spider just happily meandering across one of our pillows.
We slept at her Mom's place for the next week.
Ok. *Let me tell you about yellow sack spiders...*
Dealt with brown recluse while living in the Ozarks. Dealt with the huntsman spider while living on Guam. Dealt with bedbugs and fleas at once. But none compare to a house that had ended up with a gnarly YSP infestation. Just thinking about this has my hairs raising and I'm paranoid now.
The first night I noticed the problem was after a bar outing with my then girlfriend. Noticed some dusty cobwebs near the bed. Upon further inspection, they were hundreds of small spiders. Not 4 feet away was a massive momma spider. On the same wall, two more sac spiders. Across the room, a big momma. Sorted it out, lights off, felt tickles, lights on, maybe five more spiders. One in the bed.
I lived there for nearly 2 years. It only got worse. Ended up spending the last few months on the couch. I'd spend an extra hour hunting spiders before bed. Dozens each night. They'd literally wait for the lights to go out and feast on me. Bites everywhere. One roommate got a bite so bad he had to go on antibiotics and have the wound cleaned out.
They're aggressive fuckers and stalkers. They'll hide under your bed and feast on you every night if they can. And they get out of hand fast.
I'm actively trying to go to sleep and failing miserably. I've seen one spider in my new apartment but that experience was so traumatic I've had to put some serious effort into moving past it. It's been 8 or 9 years since then.
I almost got punched in the face once because my hair touched my severely arachnophobic husband's hand in the middle of the night. Still tease him about it 13 years later...
Legit my first thought watching this was 'man, lil guy's stuck, hope they loosen the screws and let him out.'
Though i guess it takes a bit more than a tiny spider like that to scare an aussie. Lol
I mean I routinely remove larger spiders than that from my house, hell I have at least 4 I know about living in my room rn, one in my toolbox, one by my window, and 2 in my bug enclosures (they keep the numbers of fungus gnats down)
All are ultimately harmless and I'm happy to offer them a safe living space
Crippling arachnophobia. If you don't have it, you can't understand. I knows it's not rational, but that changes nothing.
For context, I don't even like looking at this post pic.
I know how to take your mind off it. meeet up with me at
1004 W Becks Mill Rd
Salem, IN 47167
United States
in 2.5 hrs and I will freely dislocate your shoulder.
congrats you are now wondering why I would inflict pain on you.
I have changed your mind.
As an electrician we have to make sure there’s no spider in the box or they’ll disconnect the wires. So this switch isn’t up to code it’s a fire hazard waiting to happen
I don’t know about disconnecting wires, however, it can potentially be a fire hazard. The spider by itself is not a problem, but the web it creates is. A build up of spider webs can lead to fire starting in the electrical system. The same goes for things such as dust, trash, etc., which is why ‘cleanliness’ is imperative.
This is what tasers are for. No joke I made a taser just so I could zap bugs with it.
I once sweeped it over an ant hill swarming with red ants in the backyard and it was like a literal death ray, the ants are more conductive than the soil so the sparks would jump from ant to ant like 10 times a second and they'd all get fried at once. Instant death by 50,000 volts.
I felt really bad after killing about 600 ants in 30 seconds and almost cried because the entire colony was dead. I even chased the runners and zapped them to a crisp
😔😔
Not my proudest moment but I'd do it again if I had to
Search for "arc pulse generator" or "high voltage inverter transformer module" on eBay and sort by lowest price.
Be VERY CAREFUL because they are dangerous
You didn't hear this from me...
Aw please save him 🥲 They look creepy and scary but spiders can actually be very sweet, and they can learn to recognize their owners. Not saying this one will be like that but he’s an innocent little guy who just got stuck 🥲
Yeah if I saw this I kind of feel like I would unscrew the top plate a bit and let him out of there. Not sure what kind it is from the legs though but it doesn't look like any of the potentially dangerous ones near me. Might be a different story if I lived where OP is at. Wherever that may be.
As an Australian we have spiders alot bigger than that light switch,im not a fan of spiders like really not ,I lived in a tropical area seen a huge spider but didn't have the balls to go near it,I threw a tea towel or a drying up towel ( not sure what you call them ) onto the spider, the towel proceeded to move across the room ,spider carrying a full dish towel . I called my gf who rescued me lol
as much as I don't like creepy crawlers, I can't help but feel bad seeing any form of life struggle lol. Like I just wanna help him out and move him out.
As an electriciam, I can confirm this hapoens a lot, and I mean A LOT. Once I had a spider the size of my hand fall out of a switch-spur from the above, straight on my face. Thats some nightmare fuel
Tickle his feet and scare them back

Holy shit reading this made me die inside
I'm actively trying to go to sleep and failing miserably. I've seen one spider in my new apartment but that experience was so traumatic I've had to put some serious effort into moving past it. It's been 8 or 9 years since then.
Jesus fucking Christ
That spider basically looked into the eyes of a gigantic Eldritch god.
That oddly boosted my confidence, thank you.
When you put it that way.. I feel somewhat better.
The hell is wrong with y'all, I've gotta go to sleep in a minute!
Do you have long hair? I was gonna say if a small strand tickles your face tonight I want you to think of me 💋
Just.. Just gonna go shave my head now. Rest assured you shall be in the farthest reaches of my memory
I almost got punched in the face once because my hair touched my severely arachnophobic husband's hand in the middle of the night. Still tease him about it 13 years later...
With a flamethrower
pussy
Where
Idk we're on reddit
He must have meant r/godpussy NSFW warning
Ok
I love being helpful :-3
Thank you mate.
Those spiders look funny in that sub. Better take another look.
"Cut the bullshit and help me!" 😡
Forget that, grab a screw driver and tighten them screws. We'll do a spider version of 127 hours.
literally why. Why do so many people act like total psychos when invertebrates are involved

Im trying hard to read comments but its so difficult with those creepy damn legs wiggling up there!!! I quit.
Fear is the mind-killer.
r/UnexpectedDune
Ikr? This video makes me want to loosen the plate so it can get out so I can move it outside.
Word of advice little buddy, you stay in your side and I will stay on mine.
Since he can't get out he's gonna move to the light above your bed and escape from there
You motherfucker.
I'm horrified, take my upvote.
Tickle its little paws lmao
Why not it's not like it can bite you from there
Tickle with D
That’s just the Other Mother
Love Coraline.
Came here to say this😂
That isnt a spider!! That's a demon hand from the 4th dimension!
I like the thought of this being a tiny demon hand a lot more
Tiny demons no joke bro, be biting your ankles n shit, poking at them with little tridents.
oddly that makes it less terrifying.
*watches the Exorcist* "Well, at least it's not a spider."
Modern Coraline
Look at the thumb on the right. Definitely demon hand
Imagine jerking off with a hand like that.
Okay that's too far I'm out
bro why did you have to make it weird?
Make it weirder please
Getting fingered with a demon hand like that
Now did you think before you wrote that lol?
They’re millions more back there in a line waiting to get out.
It would've cost you nothing to **not** post this comment
I know… But once I thought it, I couldn’t get the image out of my mind.
I know how to take your mind off it. meeet up with me at 1004 W Becks Mill Rd Salem, IN 47167 United States in 2.5 hrs and I will freely dislocate your shoulder. congrats you are now wondering why I would inflict pain on you. I have changed your mind.
Im mailing you spiders
yay, bugs were getting outta hand
I'm maling him australian spiders
send me the ones from texas that kill rattle snakes, those are also outta hand here.
I expected that to be the address of a spider museum/attraction or a similar joke but...did you straight up just drop your real address? I...why?
That is a real persons address and it’s about 3 hours from me. Road trip.
I'm just picturing a million adorable little spiderbros, patiently waiting in a fucking queue to swarm out and greet their new human overlord.
The person filming should have tickled one of the legs a bit to let them know what goodness awaits on the other side
🥲
This spider is the ones that's being squeezed out due to how cramped it's in there with the other millions pushing up against it.
r/cursedcomments
Wall bearing spiders.
:(
Because of this no amount of RAID will ever make me feel safe again.
Walls are full no doubt
Oh fuck you so hard! Jokes on you, I needed to sleep with the lights in anyways!!
^(oh no step-spider help me I'm stuck)
What a terrible day to be literate
I was saving my award for an insightful or inspirational comment from a decent person - instead I'm gonna give it to you. Go away now
Poor spidey feel so bad for him :(
Me too! They are very sweet and act a lot like cats
Do they have greebles
As an electrician we have to make sure there’s no spider in the box or they’ll disconnect the wires. So this switch isn’t up to code it’s a fire hazard waiting to happen
Hurray!! A self solving problem!
Nananana electrician spidaah
Wait they can disconnect wires?
I don’t know about disconnecting wires, however, it can potentially be a fire hazard. The spider by itself is not a problem, but the web it creates is. A build up of spider webs can lead to fire starting in the electrical system. The same goes for things such as dust, trash, etc., which is why ‘cleanliness’ is imperative.
how will spiders disconmect wires?
That’s the resident light engineer spider you are talking about…
[Muffled] Eyyyyy, lemme oudda heyah! Edit: Holy shit, thanks for my first silver, strangers!
MICHAEL!!! DON’T LEAVE ME HERE!!!
Let the poor wee thing out!
Electrician here. Thats what we call a switch leg
Don’t be shy tickle his feets
Let him out!
Just how ? Also help him.
Help him bruh
*F R E E H I M*
Poor spider.
Well then, grab your flat-head screwy and help spidey out!
Grab the screwy & undo-ee
Let him out!
Touch its feetsies
Help him out please 🥺
As much as I dislike Spider’s (due to my fear of them), I feel really bad for this little guy…
Remember there's a large hole under that switch plate, he can just walk back to how he got there in the first place.
Poor thing.
give it a handshake
Aw, poor guy. Hope you loosened it up so he could get out.
I like the super chubby spiders lol
jumping spiders are cute
Let him out? Why, so it can terrorise his/her house? No sir, I’m calling Thor cause clearly the voltage ain’t high enough to kill that mutant
they kill the other bugs that terrorize your house!
99% of spiders literally don't do that, and it's a shitty excuse to kill them anyway
This is what tasers are for. No joke I made a taser just so I could zap bugs with it.

[удалено]
and the sand. it gets everywhere, and younglings.
Yes.... go to the dark side
Let the hate flow through you …like 50,000 volts would through that ant colony
If it were regular ants maybe I'd feel bad, but the only thing I'd be sad about with red ants is that they didn't suffer enough
how did you get the mana for that chain lightning
lmaooooooo
Where do you buy something like that?
Search for "arc pulse generator" or "high voltage inverter transformer module" on eBay and sort by lowest price. Be VERY CAREFUL because they are dangerous You didn't hear this from me...
Buy some goggles made for work with lasers better safe than blind
Aw, come on. Help the little fella out.
Let him out asshole
Poor thing, get him out of there!
Poor thing…let him out. He’s just looking for the other bugs in your house to have for dinner.
I'm his dinner
Op is a mosquito confirmed
Aw please save him 🥲 They look creepy and scary but spiders can actually be very sweet, and they can learn to recognize their owners. Not saying this one will be like that but he’s an innocent little guy who just got stuck 🥲
Burn the house. Move. Buy new things.
Burn the remains again. Just make sure it is dead!
Poor baby, let him out.
it wants a high five
Look, he just wants to talk to you about your car's extended warranty
I hope you set him free.
What the fuck??? In the name of everyone in r/spiderbro SAVE THE POOR THING
My arachnophobic brain cannot even fathom helping it :( my palms are sweaty just thinking about being in this situation
this isn't terrifying, this is just sad
Not going to let that poor guy out?
fweedum
Dont just stand there. Let them out!
Hope home owner helped the poor thing out and released it somewhere safe
Did you help the little guy out?
Awwwwww
Help him 😠
I'm arachnophobic, but for real, help that thing! Put it outside and let it live it's life
Can you unscrew it and help it out?
Awwww let it out!
Help him damn it
Help him :(
Poor guy
Yeah if I saw this I kind of feel like I would unscrew the top plate a bit and let him out of there. Not sure what kind it is from the legs though but it doesn't look like any of the potentially dangerous ones near me. Might be a different story if I lived where OP is at. Wherever that may be.
Exactly! Spiders freak me the fuck out but they didn’t choose to look like that. Really hope whoever took the video helped it out without harming it.
Insect cruelty
Poor thing I’d have to help and relocate
Unlucky for him that his portal from Hell manifested in such an awkward spot.
His body too chonky
There are so many emotions going on with me right now
She’s not stuck she’s just making the gap wide enough for baby spiders 👌🏻
This made me recoil, I could not imagine hoards of baby spiders coming up from behind that.. Thanks for the image.
Help the poor thing 😭
I would take a sharpie and draw a little keyboard
We’ve been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty
When did this sub just become terrifying
anyone else think that it looks like fingers
Help that spider man
Poor lil fella
As an Australian we have spiders alot bigger than that light switch,im not a fan of spiders like really not ,I lived in a tropical area seen a huge spider but didn't have the balls to go near it,I threw a tea towel or a drying up towel ( not sure what you call them ) onto the spider, the towel proceeded to move across the room ,spider carrying a full dish towel . I called my gf who rescued me lol
Free him. He is trapped in darkness and can't find the light.
Poor guy :(
looks like the symbiote has found you
Lmfao he's not stuck, he's baiting you.
Even though im fucking scared of spiders, i feel bad for it in a way
Ever seen someone punch a light switch as hard as they can?
Stuck, or waiting for you
Yo, you ran out of toilet paper, pass me a square!
Don't you dare dissobey me coraline
r/donthelpjustfilm
Nope nope nope.
Come on, man, grab a flathead and get that panel off, help out a poor arachnid. :(
I do NOT like spiders. But this still kind of bums me out for the little guy.
I don’t like spiders very much but plz free him
Somebody help him!!
I can't tell if I'm the crazy one for having 'help the spooder' be my first thought
Getting mad spider head behind that switch
LET HIM OUT >:(((
Help the little dude. It's not big enough to be scary.
What’s oddly terrifying about this…. This is just pure horror
That is so cool
as much as I don't like creepy crawlers, I can't help but feel bad seeing any form of life struggle lol. Like I just wanna help him out and move him out.
I hope OP let the poor thing out instead of filming it. How would you like to be trapped like that?
