Flytraps – the answer for arachnophobes

Only someone suffering from arachnophobia will realise the importance of installing flytraps. Spiders, we all know, eat flies and help keep the fly population down. But not everybody has a tolerance for the eight legged flytraps. In fact, for many the natural instinct when confronted with a spider is to:

  1. Scream
  2. Stamp on them
  3. Run

Flytraps – surviving spider season

But without spiders, your fly infestation will only get worse; which is where flytraps come in.

Flytraps – the solution for arachnophobes

If you thought arachnophobia was an over reaction, than you haven’t met a true spider-fearer. Even when given the choice of buzzing, disease spreading flies, or watching a spider crawl across the carpet, the disease-spreading flies win hands down. Flytraps however mean that you don’t have to put up with either. Writing in the Guardian newspaper, columnist Charlie Brooker became the voice of arachnophobia sufferers across the nation when he verbalised the fear felt during September – spider season - as thousands of spiders emerge, “from the bowels of hell (or the garden, whichever’s nearest) with the sole intention of tormenting humankind,” Brooker wrote. For arachnophobes, it’s a fearful time made worse only by a full-on fly infestation. The fact that spiders are nature’s flytraps is something of a kick in the teeth for arachnophobes.

Flytraps for spider haters

As Brooker explained, “What's the point of spiders anyway? They're just mobile nightmare units put on the Earth to eat flies and frighten people by scuttling out from under the TV stand and lolloping crazily toward you. Non-arachnophobes just don't get it. Fear of spiders isn't a choice, but a residual evolutionary trait that some people have and some don't…” Flytraps then are the only sane way of coping with fly infestations, especially if like Charlie, the only way to deal with spiders is with a rolled up newspaper, because if you put him outside, he’ll only crawl back in, leaving you unable to sleep until it’s dealt with. Regardless of whether you love or hate spiders, flytraps can help.
