Why the fear of bats, wasps or spiders?
I had a massive fear of wasps as a young man. I was 21 helping a buddy and his dad shovel fish poop out of trout farm ponds in Sandy Lake, PA. They showed me the hatchery. Inside there was a wasp on the wall not three feet from me. Probably a vicious mud dauber. I froze up. Buddy's Dad cracked a little smile, reached out and crushed it between his fingers. That really helped me chill out on a big picture scale for the rest of my life.
