What's that on my kitchen floor?






The other night from the corner of my eye, I saw something suspicious on my kitchen floor. It looked extra suspicious because I didn't have my contacts in or glasses on so I crept up a little closer  to solve this mystery and what I hoped were just dust balls of some sort were actually four woodbugs and and two spiders entangled in between all of them...dead. It's like some big gang fight just went down and it ended fatally. But really, it was either they end it themselves or I do the dirty work later. What I am trying to get at here is that there are way to many bugs up in here. My place is mostly made up of spiders, woodbugs and beetles. It drives me crazy. Spiders are the worst and they are fast and almost like little wolf spiders. Disgusting. And while the title of this post might by 'What's that on my kitchen floor?' it really should be 'What's that on my kitchen floor, bedroom floor, living room floor, walls, shower curtain, in my bathtub, toilet, mugs, sink, and under my bathmat?' but then the title of this post would be pretty well the same length as the actual post. The only thing these spiders haven't tried to mark their territory on is my clothes (and my bed, Thank you Lord!) and they should know that I will hunt their colony down if they ever get on one of my shirts and I don't realize it until my shirt is on. I'm not kidding, this has happened to me before in a different house and I flipped out. To prevent this, I always shake my clothes before putting them on and you may laugh at this and think how ridiculous? But I see at least one spider every two to three days and sometimes I see two and one morning there were five in my bathroom at once...so if I average that out to one spider a day and I've been here 49 days then yes folks, that's almost 50 spiders! So I will shake those clothes, even if it means fatigued arms because the one day I don't do it, there will probably be a tarantula in my underwear.
