Although I don't mind insects, that's partly because we don't have any really inimical animals here in the UK, for which I am duly thankful.
There is a rather suspicious looking funnel-shaped spider web in the hall. I've not poked at it, in case a large beastie with corks dangling round it's hat leaps out.
Mind you, could be worse, might be a giant spider.
