This again. It seems like every year, at least once a year, someone burns their house down trying to kill a spider or snake, and someone gets stuck in a chimney and dies. We haven’t had that chimney death yet. I’m betting some time in August.

That fool. He should have used a .500 s&w magnum instead.

Doesn’t he know that’s a job for the police (and kill his dog if he has one).

Kill Them! with Fire!

First things first. Did he get the spider?

[Delta 21]

Would have been a more effective choice.

In his defense, there are some enormous damn spiders up here in Seattle area. During “hobo spider” mating season the suckers will chase each other across the floor—and occasionally go after your toes if you skitter too quickly and startle them.

(I put the name in quotes because there's an on-going debate about the identification and actual proliferation corridor of hobo spiders. Personally, I don't care. Shit that chases me across the floor: dies.)

Did the spider die? If so, I guess it’s mission accomplished. ;)
