Since a spider's chief defense is its bite, dental care is important!

A CleanBrite toothbrush with its patented "LongReach Tingling" bristles can reach those difficult spots where small bugs often hide.

Mom: So, where's your toothbrush?

Johnny: I don't know. I can't find it!

Mom <sarcastically>: Well, I suppose it just grew legs and walked off, then!

Connundrum: Engage in proper dental hygiene or keep the spider imprisoned.

Ugh! Growing up on a farm, it was the spiders with 7 or even 6 legs that scared me. You know they had been in fights and survived. They just hung there on the wall, as if to say, "Bring it!"

For us on the farm... what got the Adrenalin rush was baling hay working the wagon stacking, you reach down and right where you’re going to grab the twine, theres a big ole half a pine snake staring back at you.

of course you then put that bale on top, and let the person (sibling) unloading find it.
