Message: <blockquote data-quote="tarantuladk" data-source="post: 242084" data-attributes="member: 50995">Over a month ago I made a mistake, but I rectified it quite quickly.Our cats had brought some ticks inside. One cat always sleeps in my daughters bed and therefor I took a tick and mosquito repellent and sprayed some of it on my daughter, while she was sitting in her bed.It is the same room where her spiders are. Realizing the mistake we quickly washed our hands, put on gloves and took the water dishes from all spiders. The aerosol was drawn to water.While we were at it, we opened the window and got some air exchanged.Yes it was a stupid mistake. We reacted in time and no spiders were harmed.</blockquote>
