You are right, it is irrational. It is funny how we have those kinds of fears. Spiders don't scare me outside of the house, but I hate them in the house.
When I was in Central America there were these HUGE 4 inch cockroaches that were in the house, and that fell from the roof in the shower. They were massive, and these tiny little ants ate them - all in the house.
I saw a lizard in the house which didn't appeal to me either. When I was in the bush or at the zoo those things fascinated me. I kicked the cockroaches outside the house and you could here them hit the ground after you kick them.
I saw a brown taranchula (I have no idea what they are called) that was in a barrow. Didn't bug me one bit. If it was in the house it would have bothered me though
After seeing those cockroaches and that foot long lizard in the house down there, spiders in the house didn't bug me very much.
