Spiders are awesome because they eat the annoying bugs, and its really fun to watch them build a web. Its funny you say too many legs because I love it when I’m out hiking and find a millipede. Basement centipedes are fine as they are another annoying bug eater, I don’t really come across any large centipedes, but I’d probably steer clear of those.
See, I’m cool with millipedes - mainly because they fall in the camp of “not venomous”. And if they actually are venomous, I don’t want that information haha.
The basement centipedes creep me out but I’m not necessarily afraid of them.
Giant centipedes actually present a roughly equivalent danger as a venomous snake. It can be treated with antivenom (I think anyway), but left untreated can actually be fatal.
Spiders fall in a camp of genuine phobia for me. It’s a pure lizard-brain fear reaction when it comes to them and it’s really hard to overcome.
