Spider on my car today - UGH!

I must have made a funny scene in the parking lot trying to get it off with a straw

This big gross orangey-tan thing made a web between my passenger window and the mirror I guess overnight. It had those dark brown stripes on its legs, ewwww. I was freaking out the whole way to work (only a 5 min ride thank god). And it almost flew off at one point - of course I was driving a little faster than normal in the hopes it would go flying - but no, it just plastered itself against the window then! (It was hanging on to the web, those things are strong!)

It took all I had to get close enough to the thing once I parked to get it off the car. I then stepped on it to make sure it didn't crawl back on to the car - or worse, IN IT - while I was at work.

I HATE SPIDERS!!!

atleast it wasn't in your car.

I almost crashed once because a spider crawled over my foot (in my POS car in college where the window didn't close all the way - those succckers got in ALL THE TIME)

UGH in my car they freak me out. At home, I can deal if they are not dark in color. I have no idea why. If they are light brown or clear, I can kill them myself or sometimes just let them be. But if they are dark brown or BLACK, they must be killed instantly and not by me.

AARGH! I HATE spiders! You are brave...I would have been looking for the LONGEST stick around....I won't go anywhere near them!
I hate when they are in the car, on the windshield! I must look like a lunatic when there is one in my car! I flip out!

I was looking for a stick, unfortanately a straw was all I could find!

On the windshield I spray them with the cleaner and wipe them away. If it doesn't work though, it could end up close to your door, and that stinks because then I am afraid to exit the car. I have climbed over the console and exited from the passenger side on many an occasion.
