Pretend spiders are perfect for Halloween, they are great inspiration for costumes, decorations, and even cakes and Halloween crafts but the real thing can be scary, especially if you have a fear or phobia of spiders. In fact, a fear of spiders is said to be one of the most common fears that we pass onto our children.

But now, thanks to Aldi, we have just the thing to humanely catch the creepy crawlies and remove them without having to get close.
