I have tried several approaches to help with this, from experience I can tell you what doesnt work.

Hokay thanks Jim2004 again

I'm having hypnotherepy and its working still got a bit spooked with the bog roll huntsman just then but overall much better.

I picked a spider up the other week (I had gloves on) but still there is no way on this earth I would have done that before.

I also lent on a wall next to a quite big one and had a conversation with it!

Give it a go its expensive but worth it if shes really phobic.

Sorry Possoms, but it's just too tempting each time a 'spider' or 'insect' post pops up!

Don't worry, I have a daughter that is petrified of spiders, hence I was using the Huntsman as my desktop background for a while ...lol

She'll be ok tho, I hear the snakes take care of the spiders ! :scared:
