Arachnophobes look away now.
Spiders of all shapes and sizes have been spotted in homes across Dorset as spider season gets underway.
Readers have been sharing their pictures of eight-legged creatures spotted in their homes and gardens.
Some are colourful, some unusual and some are big enough to bring us out in a cold sweat.
Here are some of the spiders that have been captured in camera.
