Too funny! hahaha
I love the fuzzy ones. A cute, little jumping spider hangs around the desk here. I try being friendly but she is pretty shy and leaps away when I get a finger too close. She is about ½ cm in diameter (about 0.33 inches) but she can leap almost 3 decimeters (almost a foot).

Other than that can is roach killer, I like that it has a lemon scent. Poison should always be lemon scented. Covers the fact that you are probably harming your whole family.

What is permethrin?

Permethrin is an insecticide in the pyrethroid family. Pyrethroids are synthetic chemicals that act like natural extracts from the chrysanthemum flower. Permethrin is used in a number of ways to control insects. Products containing permethrin may be used in public health mosquito control programs. They may be used on food and feed crops, on ornamental lawns, on livestock and pets, in structures and buildings, and on clothing. Permethrin may also be used in places where food is handled, such as restaurants. Permethrin was first registered with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) in 1979, and was re-registered in 2006.
