The 3 Step Approach to Spider Extermination

So tonight Brig and I hung out. In one of our more brilliant blonde moments we came up with the three step approach to spider extermination. It's really quite simple, you just have to remember the three "s".
  1. Spray: In order to properly exterminate a spider you need to ensure you have some way to disable said spider's movement. I find that hair spray does this most effectively. Extra strength Suave. It has great hold, but comes off most surfaces.
  2. Stomp: This step is crucial. "Smash" may be substituted for "stomp" (SSS Approved Smashing Materials: shoes, books, binders, anything heavy that rolls, cups, glasses, plates but never, NEVER anything that involves touching the spider, even if it's through toilet paper). The key is making the first stomp or smash effective. There are several reasons for this. First, we're not into torture here. We want quickest, most painless end for our little arachnid. Secondly, the only thing worse than a spider crawling around your room is a half dead spider wiggling it's legs. Yuck. Make it a good stomp.
  3. Swim: How, you ask, does swimming become involved in the spider termination process? Well, you have to get rid of the body. I use the patented "Rush and Flush" method. This inolves me putting the little body on any surface I can spare (without touching it, of course) and running as fast as I can to flush it down the toilet. One tip: don't run too fast. Those suckers are light and tend to have a lot of lift at high speeds.
Thanks Brig... it was a really fun night! :)
