I used to be scared of spiders. I still don't particularly like them crawling on me, and I admit to doing the webtusi dance whenever I walk through a spiderweb, but they do such an excellent job of keeping flies and other critters under control that I try to leave them alone. Silverfish, however, are my sworn enemies. I have far too many stored books in my home to be comfortable with seeing them around.
