Fair enough mate, since we are on a frankness vibe, I too
had morbid arachnophobia,
till one day a quarter pounder spider was on my pillow at wake time, staring me down
i.e. as you know it's >
FREAK OUT CITY !!! What did I do?
I thought about it for a second... and panic flicked it off the pillow with my middle finger (cigarette binning experience) and it landed into a corner
I got up feeling wacked out, and thought about it some more... then I got a plastic wall wart package that has the sliding cardboard thing,
captured the spider, and what to do ?
Instead of sending it to Arachnid HELL, I decided to drop it on a lemon tree,
reasoning was to hopefully it build a web and sort out any nasties like ants, caterpillars, wasps etc which were a REAL problem
Thought about it some more over time and realised... hey "morbid arachnophobia" GONE !
Since then a LOT of spiders have been captured roaming about with the same method described,
and put to good use in the back yard.
They rarely return btw, and if they do (unlikely) they go back asap
Their offspring can appear occasionally looking for a base of operations in a corner somewhere,
same deal for them too
Hope that helps, and FWIW most vacs in a maintained state can do what a Dyson can do
Just wait till a Dyson gets blocked up badly by hair,
you have to dissect the head unit completely
and have a selection of pickey type tools to do the job properly
20 minute job on a good day...if the hair balls have not welded to the plastic...
