**Sattua** , I live in west central Indiana. A couple of miles east of the IL state line.

That’s no problem, **alaska56**. I plan on doing that, also! Well…not _me_ , but I will have my teenage daughter do it. lol lol She’s got a much better constitution than I regarding those vile spiders!

You can always use something like this.  
[http://www.spidertrap.com](http://www.spidertrap.com)

If you don’t like spiders (I don’t - ever since getting a Daddy Longlegs in the mouth one day, I can’t stand them) don’t go to the “more pictures” link. It shows a full trap.

Thank you, **Gravity**! That is yet another option. I just would hope that the delectable smell of the traps wouldn’t draw the critters in from outside! I should have just went to the order page, ordered and been finished with it. But nooooo.

Man…that pic with all the spiders stuck in the trap…Jeez…a nightmare waiting to happen! I should’ve NEVER wandered around the site!  
I know better! :smack:

I’m sorry, **Inigo Montoya**. I was quite shaken when I heard that one!  
It may just be a load of crap, too! Maybe they were wrong! _Hey, I can wish, can’t I?_
