These ones that are in your house, are they big or just UK size spiders? Starting to wish I hadn't posted this. I guess I have just got visions of big chunky spiders everywhere. Stomachs going all funny just thinking of them!!!!

Wouldn't worry about it.
Spiders aren't gross, but leaches are pretty vile... They stand up on end and twirl around looking for your feet. Then they crawl through into your boots, bite and inject anesthetic and anticoagulant and drink your blood. The time you know you've got one on you is when you squash it in your walking boot and there's blood EVERYWHERE.
See, now spiders are the least of your worries.
