ʻO kēia ma muli o ke kiʻekiʻe o ke kauwela ma mua o ka maʻamau (ʻo ia ka mea i hoʻonui ai i ka nui o nā nalo, a ʻo ia hoʻi he kumu meaʻai no nā spiders), a me ka ua maʻamau ma mua o ka mahina i hala, ka mea i hoʻihoʻi mai i nā spider i loko o ko mākou mau home. ʻO ka ua nō hoʻi i paʻa ai ka ʻai a nā spiders i loko o kā lākou pūnaewele, a ʻo ia hoʻi ka piʻi ʻana o ka nui o ka pūnāwai.
Ke hōʻike nei kekahi poʻe kamaʻāina ʻākau i ka ʻike ʻana i nā spider a hiki i ka 7.5 kenimika ka lōʻihi e kolo ana i ko lākou mau home—lawa e hoʻokuʻu i nā haʻalulu i lalo o nā iwi he nui.
Ua alakaʻi ʻia kēia mau ʻano o ka ʻāina i nā poʻomanaʻo nūhou e like me "Pololi, Hungry Spiders That Can Trigger Burglar Alarms Are Invading Our Homes."
Pili kēiaka hoʻowalewale ʻia ʻana o nā pūnāwele hale kāne (no ka genus Tegenaria) e komo i nā hale e ʻimi i ka pumehana, ka malu a me nā hoa.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka hapa nui o nā ʻano spider ʻoi aku ma mua o 670 ʻōiwi maoli ma UK ʻaʻole i komo maʻamau i ko mākou mau home. Noho ka hapa nui ma ka nahelehele, e like me nā pā a me nā ululāʻau, aʻo nā manu kolo lāʻau e noho ana ma lalo o ka wai.
Akā inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kekahi ma kou home, mai hopohopo. ʻOiai he makaʻu iki paha kēia mau mea huluhulu, ʻoi aku ka hoihoi ma mua o ka makaʻu.
Akā, e hoʻāʻo e kamaʻilio me kaʻu wahine, a i ʻole ka miliona o ka poʻe i loaʻa i ka arachnophobia irrational (ʻike ʻia ʻo arachnophobia).
Hāʻawi pinepine ʻia kēia phobia mai nā mākua i nā keiki. ʻOiai maʻa mau nā keiki e ʻohi i nā ʻāwīwī a hōʻike iā lākou i ko lākou mau mākua, me ka nīnau ʻana i ko lākou manaʻo, inā he ʻuā weliweli ka pane mua o nā mākua, ʻaʻole paha lākou e hoʻopā hou i ka pūnāwelewele.
Ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa nei kekahi, ʻo ka makaʻu o ka poʻe i nā spiders ma muli o ka ʻike ʻana o ka poʻe kahiko, i ka wā o ka evolution, ua aʻo lākou e makaʻala i nā mea ʻike ʻole.
Eia nō naʻe, e like me ka ʻōlelo a ka loea spider Helen Smith, mahalo ʻia nā spider ma mua o ka inaina ʻia i nā moʻomeheu he nui, ʻoiai lākou e noho nei i waena o nā ʻano mea make a make.
ʻO ke kumu ʻē aʻe a mākou e ʻike ai i ka weliweli o nā spider ʻo ko lākou wikiwiki. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, neʻe lākou ma kahi o hoʻokahi mile i kēlā me kēia hola. Akā ma ke ʻano o ka nui pili, inā ʻoi aku ka nui o ka spider hale me ke kanaka, ʻoi aku ia ma mua o Usain Bolt!
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua wikiwiki ka evolution i nā spiders a hiki ʻole ke ʻike i nā mea ʻaihue e like me nā pōpoki a me nā manu. Mai hopohopo ke ʻike ʻoe i kahi spider; akā, mahalo i ko lākou ola kupaianaha.
'Ōleloʻo Helen Smith: "ʻO ka aʻoʻana eʻike i nā wāhine (ʻoi aku ka nui)ʻo ia ka hoʻomaka o ka hoʻomaopopoʻana i kā lākou mau moʻolelo ola kupaianaha a kōkua i ka hoʻololiʻana i ka makaʻu i mea hoihoi."
He ʻeono paha kenimika ka lōʻihi o nā pūnawele wahine, me ka lōʻihi o kēlā me kēia wāwae ma kahi o hoʻokahi ʻīniha, no ka lōʻihi o ʻekolu kenimika. He liʻiliʻi a he lōʻihi nā wāwae kane.
ʻO kekahi ala ʻē aʻe e hoʻokaʻawale iā lākou, ʻo ia ka nānā ʻana i nā "tentacles" o ke kāne: ʻelua mau hiʻohiʻona liʻiliʻi e puka ana mai ke poʻo a hoʻohana ʻia no ka manaʻo mea.
He kuleana koʻikoʻi kēia mau tentacles i ka male ʻana. Ma mua o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka wahine, ʻōhi ka pūnāwelewele kāne i kahi kulu o ka sperm a omo i loko o kēlā me kēia o kona mau lole. ʻAʻole paha he aloha, akā pono maoli. ʻO nā nalu wahine ka lōʻihi loa—ʻelua makahiki a ʻoi aʻe paha—akā, hūnā maʻamau lākou i loko o kā lākou pūnaewele, ʻike pinepine ʻia ma nā kihi ʻeleʻele o nā hale kaʻa a i ʻole nā hale hale, ʻoiai hiki ke ʻike ʻia i loko o kou home.
Ma waho aʻe o nā pūnaewele hale, hiki paha iā ʻoe ke hālāwai me nā spider wāwae lōʻihi, i loaʻa ko lākou inoa ma muli o ko lākou ʻano like me nā nalo wāwae lōʻihi (a i ʻole centipedes), ʻo ia hoʻi nā inike maʻamau i ka hāʻule.
Hōʻike ka poʻe noho o kekahi mau ʻāpana ʻākau i ka ʻike ʻana i nā spider a hiki i 7.5 kenimika ka lōʻihi e kolo ana i ko lākou mau home.
ʻOiai ua manaʻo ʻia kēia ʻāwīwī he mea make loa o nā mea ola a pau ma Beretania, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ʻaʻole liʻiliʻi kona waha e hou i ka ʻili kanaka. E like me nā mea ʻē aʻe i kapa ʻia ʻo "ʻoiaʻiʻo" e pili ana i nā spiders, ʻo ka ʻōlelo ʻana he pōʻino lākou i nā kānaka he moʻolelo maʻemaʻe o ke kūlanakauhale. ʻOiaʻiʻo, hiki i kēia pūnawele like ʻole ke pepehi i nā mea ʻoi aku ka nui (me nā spider hale) me kona ʻawaʻawa, akā ʻaʻohe pono e hopohopo.
Ua hoʻolauna ʻia nā spider wāwae lōʻihi i UK mai ʻEulopa i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia 20 a mai ia manawa ua laha ma ka ʻĀkau o ʻEnelani, Wales a me ʻEkokia, ʻo ka nui ma o ka holo ʻana i nā lako i nā kaʻa lawe.
I nā makahiki ma hope o ke Kaua Honua II, ua huakaʻi ka loea spider ʻo Bill Bristol i ka ʻāina, e nānā ana i nā lumi hoʻokipa a me ke aʻo ʻana i ka laulā o ka spider.
Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoholo inā ua noho ka spider i kou home ma ka nānā ʻana i nā kihi o ke kaupaku, ʻoi aku hoʻi i nā lumi anuanu e like me ka lumi ʻauʻau. Inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi pūnaewele puni honua e kahe ana me ka pūnāwelewele i loko, hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻimi mālie iā ia me ka penikala—e ʻāwīwī koke ka spider i kona kino holoʻokoʻa, kahi e hoʻohana ai ia e pale aku i nā mea ʻaihue a huikau i nā mea pio.
ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia paha kēia pūnawelewele, akā hiki i kona mau wāwae lōʻihi ke kuha aku i waho o nā pūnaewele paʻa a kāʻili i nā mea e lana ana ma mua.
He mea maʻamau kēia pepeke ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o ʻEnelani, a he mea ʻeha loa kona nahu ʻana - ʻano like me ke ʻano nalo meli - akā e like me ka hapa nui o nā mea kolo, ʻaʻole ia he ʻino; pono e hoonaukiuki.
Akā ʻo ia ka mea ʻino loa i hiki iā lākou ke hana. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻo nā hōʻike e pili ana i nā pūʻulu manu make e kūʻē ana i ka poʻe e hele aʻe nei i lilo i moʻolelo moʻokalaleo.
Pono e paipai ʻia nā spiders: nani lākou, kōkua i ka pepehi ʻana i nā mea ʻino, a hoʻonui i ka manawa me mākou ma mua o kou manaʻo.
ʻAe wau me ia. Mai ʻoluʻolu e haʻi aku i kaʻu wahine ke kono nei au i nā ʻāwīwī i loko o ka hale, i ʻole e pilikia nui wau.
ʻO ka mea pōʻino, i ka wā e hoʻokuʻu ai i ka spider, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻololi i ke kahe o ka ea - hiki ke hoʻoluliluli wale ʻia i waho o ka hāmeʻa, ʻaʻole maʻalahi.
He mauʻu maloʻo maloʻo kēia i hoʻohana ʻia e ka pākaukau 9-volt. Ua kūpono ka lōʻihi no ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i kahi spider ma ka lōʻihi o ka lima, akā ua liʻiliʻi ke anawaena iaʻu. Ua hoʻāʻo au ma luna o kahi pūnawele liʻiliʻi i piʻi i ka paia a peʻe ma hope o kahi kiʻi kiʻi. ʻOiai ʻaʻole ikaika loa ka momi, ʻo ke kaomi wale ʻana i ka mauʻu i ka ʻili o ka spider ua lawa ia e huki ai me ka ʻole o ka pōʻino.
ʻO ka mea pōʻino, i ka wā e hoʻokuʻu ai i ka spider, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻololi i ke ala o ka ea—akā, pono ʻoe e hoʻoluliluli i waho o ka hāmeʻa, ʻaʻole ia he kaʻina wikiwiki loa.
Hoʻohana like ia me ka uhi ʻana i kahi kāleka me ke aniani, akā mālama ka lima 24-inihi i kēlā mau iniseti liʻiliʻi mai ka hiki.
He maʻalahi ka hopu ʻana i kahi spider ma ka papahele. E uhi wale i ka pūnawelewele me kahi poʻi plastik maʻemaʻe a hoʻoneʻe i ka puka lalo ma lalo. ʻAʻole e hoʻopōʻino ka poʻi plastik lahilahi i nā wāwae o ka spider ke pani ʻia. Eia naʻe, e hoʻomanaʻo he palupalu ka puka a ʻaʻole paʻa paʻa i kekahi manawa, no laila e hoʻāʻo ka spider e pakele.
Pono kēia ʻano ʻoiai ʻaʻole e neʻe ka spider; a i ʻole, e ʻoki paha ʻoe i kona mau wāwae a i ʻole e haki.
He mea paʻa a liʻiliʻi kēia i hiki ke hopu i nā mea kolo liʻiliʻi. He hana maikaʻi ia inā ʻaʻole ʻeleu ka spider, i ʻole e ʻoki ʻoe i kona mau wāwae a i ʻole e ʻoki ʻia. Ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka spider, hiki ke piʻi maʻalahi ka puka ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo, e hoʻopaʻa i ka spider i loko no ka hoʻokuʻu pono ʻana.
Ua like keia pahele pepeke me ka panapana flintlock kahiko a hoohana pu no hoi i ka omo. Hele mai ia me kahi kukui kukui LED e kōkua iā ʻoe e ʻimi a hopu i kēia mau mea liʻiliʻi ma nā kihi ʻeleʻele. Holo ʻo ia ma luna o ʻelua mau ʻanuʻu AA, a ʻoiai ʻaʻole ikaika loa ka hoʻomoʻa ʻana, ua huki maikaʻi ʻo ia i kahi pūnaewele liʻiliʻi i waho o koʻu keʻena. He ʻano laka ko ka pahele e pale aku ai i ka pakele ʻana o nā pepeke. Eia nō naʻe, no ka mea he 1.5 ʻīniha wale ke anawaena o ka paipu, ke hopohopo nei au ʻaʻole hiki ke komo i loko o nā pūnāwai nui.
Aia i loko o kēia huahana nā insecticides permethrin a me tetrafluoroethylene, ka mea e pepehi ʻaʻole wale i nā spiders akā i nā mea ʻē aʻe kekahi, me ka pi. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ma loko a ma waho a ʻaʻole waiho ʻia ke koena, koena paʻa, a ʻala paha, akā ʻaʻole hiki iaʻu ke lawe iaʻu iho e pepehi i nā spider pōʻino ʻole.
Ke hopu ʻia ka ʻiʻo, ʻōlelo ʻia e "ʻohi" iā ia. ʻIke au i kēia ʻano hana maikaʻi, akā ʻaʻole wau makemake.
Aia i loko o kēia pahele nalo he ʻekolu mau pahele pepa paʻa e pelu ai i loko o nā "hale" ʻekolu ʻekolu e hopu ai ʻaʻole wale i nā pūnāwai, akā, ʻo nā ʻanuʻu pū kekahi, nā ʻoki lāʻau, nā moʻo, nā namu, a me nā mea kolo ʻē aʻe. ʻAʻole ʻona nā pahele a palekana no nā keiki a me nā holoholona. Akā naʻe, ua hoʻohana au i kaʻu no hoʻokahi pule a ʻaʻole i hopu i hoʻokahi pepeke.
No laila, he aha kekahi mau ala kūlohelohe e hoʻopau ai i nā spiders i loko o ka hale? Ua ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo ka chestnut lio i kau ʻia ma ka windowsill e pale aku i nā spiders. Ua ʻike mua nā mea kūʻai kūʻai eBay i kēia: hiki ke kiʻi i ka chestnuts a hiki i ka £20 no ka kilo.
