I was spring cleaning windows one day and I had one of these nearly jump on me. This is a jumping spider. Only the one that nearly jumped on me was black in color with a purple spot on it. Hard to kill them.
I share your horror of spiders.

You were ready with the Raid for them spiders, weren't you?
When my neighbor was alive, she would have me to water her outside plants for her when she took a trip. I was sticking my hand in the water meter box to turn the water on and off not knowing that there was a black widow spider in there.
No big deal though...the water department has pictures of snakes nesting in the meter holes because it is damp and cool. I'm glad I did not encounter one of those.

I have had long term arachnophobia since I was a small child. I have discovered that a nice strong dose of Raid, Black Flag, etc. is an excellent treatment for the sudden onset.
The worst spider incident that I had was in the church by the bathroom. There was a large gray spider sitting there at the door way. I promptly fetched and hit him with the poison gas. He did not immediately react but rather started running away. Once I had him looking snowed on, he finally started to show reaction. I had to keep spraying him for a while to make sure that he actually died as he would seemingly start to recover after a short time.
I would rather deal with a serpent to a spider any day.
