I've learned to ignore them:). When I go out at night to sit in the garden, I look around to make sure I at least know where they are:). I especially don't like it when they are over me, when they have crawled up under the eaves. But last year we go one of those covered swings to set on the patio, so I don't worry "as much:)" about them falling on me. If that happened I'd proably never be able to go out there again. I'd have to dismantle the garden:)
This kind of sounds like we have "alot". we don't really, just more then I use to see. Maybe 3-4 a summer now.

It's funny, When I stared reading your post, my imagination took over. I'm picturing all these tarantulas climbing out of the eves of your house LOL.
