We plan on putting a bed in our finished basement for the grandparents since our guest room is now a nursery. Problem is.... we supposedly have a big spider down there. A plumber was doing work at our house and came upstairs scared after seeing a spider that looked like a wolf spider(of course he said this all in front of my mother). Now my mom and my in-laws refuse to sleep in the basement due to the testimony of this plumber and this spider.

Both sets of grandparents spend the night at our house weekly, so they are regulars. They are currently bringing blow up mattresses or sleeping on the couch when they are here.

I think they are being ridiculous re:: the basement and the spider. What do you think?
