spiders do not normally bother me, but long ago when I first got out of the Army and was going to college I was on a part time crew that was winterizing homes for the elderly and low income. I was knocking out a bunch of plywood that was around the foundation of a house, had my hand through an opening and was beating outward with a hammer when all of a sudden my arm felt all "crawly". I pulled my arm out and I had what seemed to be dozens of small black widow spiders from my fingertips to my shoulder. I started dancing around, pulling my shirt off, one of the guys on the crew saw what was going on and turned a hose on me. all the other guys were of course perplexed as to why I was being hosed down in the middle of a Colorado winter ;o(
