Ok, so a spider (decent size) managed to get into my dog's auto-water-er and has been in there for over a day, and is still alive, even though he has been submerged whenever I checked on him. I got some pictures of him I'll post once I can figure out how to get them to a website other than here. just curious how long it will take the little fucker to die (I don't do spiders)

What does this mean, too much of a puss to squash it in a paper towel?

he apparently couldn't last as long as the internet said... after I made the thread, he stopped moving, and started kinda half floating (like a tethered bouy) on the bottom of the waterer...


so I took it off and dumped him outside- if he came back, good for him, but it took everything in my not to smoosh the fucker

One time, I pulled my clothes out of the wash and started putting them in the dryer and a black thing about 1/2" in diameter fell on the floor. Upon closer examination it looked to be a dead spider, so I got some TP, picked up the curled up dead spider and threw it in the toilet. I then went back to loading the dryer, started it up, and went back to flush the toilet and to get a better look at the spider.

Turns out he wasn't dead. He uncurled himself, apparently realizing his predicament (fuck, I'm going to drown!) and was now a full 2" across and walking actively across the TP I had thrown into the toilet along with him. He was covered in little bubbles all over. I flushed that shit three times, as it was the only way to be sure.

so flushing a spider isn't inherently a death sentence
