Grab an empty jar and use that anyway I have a few horror stories having lived in Malaysia. One must remember that this is a tropical country where insects and arachnids are bigger. Also you can keep your house as clean as possible but must still expect wildlife visitors. One night I could feel a cockroach scuttle over my face these are horrible beetles but they don't bite however during the eighties when we moved back here and dad had to go back to work in Malaysia the house that still belonged to us then was a wooden long house and once he was in bed with a centipede! Luckily he wasn't bitten! We also had two scorpions but the other wildlife visitors were a chameleon, atlas moth, monkeys, flying squirrels and as a member of Butterfly Conservation I wish I'd been more interested in the amazing butterflies. The dawn chorus was amazing!
