Spider Invasion - Thank God I Had The Dirt Devil Bagless Upright Vacuum To Protect Ourselves
In the last autumn the creepy crawlers came scampering into our residence from their outside nests in search of refuge from the approaching winter winds and cold. If there is one thing I can't stand it is spiders. One night I was awoken by the howling breeze and a scary dream to find with dismay, just above my head on the ceiling was an ugly, furry, eight legged creature which seemed to sense my fear and came crawling towards me in a slow but determined manner. I screamed, but it kept coming.
I woke my husband who had lost in the world of dreams and pushed him, half-awake through the hall screaming 'Get the vacuum cleaner, its time to go spider-busting'. It was just when we turned on the lights which we saw with complete despair that the arachnid invader was not alone - he had an army - all over the house they were spotted, crouching in corner, crawling down walls. Right, it was time for determined action.
We woke the kids and luckily we had our own munitions store in the form of three powerful cleaning equipments - the Dirt Devil bagless upright vacuum, I picked this one as I've always loved the bag less option; The Dirt Devil upright vacuum was my husband's choice, and my son handled the Dirt Devil Featherlite upright vacuum - bless him he is merely 5 but he could handle the 14lb Featherlite no problem and thought this midnight game a great fun! In the mean time, our 3 year old ran round the residence in joy at the mad excitement and commotion.
Well you should have seen the three of us hunting around the house, there were screams - of joy, and dismay - as the spiders were sucked up or managed to flee the mighty filthy devil suction and scurry away for brief refuge under a cupboard or bookcase. After an hour, the house was gleaming as every bit of carpet and floorboard, each curtain and piece of soft furnishing had been given the once, twice and thrice-over from our intrepid dust-busters.
The powerful machines on our Dirt Devils made the cleaning hasty and efficient and the remarkable 25 foot cables implied that we could cover the entire house from merely one power point. When at last we'd completed, and not a hairy leg or web could be found in the entire house, we breathed a collective sigh of relief. We were tired but contented. We gratefully packed away our Dirt Devil friends. There was no doubt, they'd been our Angels tonight.
