Uzi or Kalashnikov. Nothing less will do. Well, OK... an Ingram in a pinch.

hehehe... when my Dad and Uncle were growing up, my Grandfather was the engineer in charge of the construction of Route 66 (yes, the one of infamy). in the summertimes they would go with the construction crews. they stayed in sod shacks along the way. in the heat of the afternoon they would go lay down in the cool of the shacks. my Grandmother would get furious with them because they would shoot at the rodents that would run along the insides of the burlap lining the walls and ceiling scattering dirt everywhere

My sister got the best system for getting rid of bug: she screams very loudly and get my father to get rid of them. She doesn't mind spiders but she's scared of anything that flies and isn't a butterfly (bees, wasps, bumblebees, moths).

Every bug I find at home gets 2D-fied i.e. flattened, except those I can corner in fireproof environment like shower, bathroom walls etc.
These meet a spray can with a lighter... I take no prisoners. |

But in this case, it must be being used for a cellar spider, since harvestmen don't have silk. |

Could be. I just assumed that because Rumpelteazer is in Europe, it would be the same daddy-long-legs. My daughters hate them as much as spiders (the Crane Fly, I mean). For some reason, they seem to evoke the same visceral response.
