the number is on average, it can change depending on where you live, what you are doing, etc.
the most common way you swallow seven Spiders a year is that when you are sleeping, they just simply crawl into your mouth :)
gross..
You can swallow spiders when you are sleeping with your mouth open. Some spiders are very little so they can just *plop* right in there and you don't even know you swallowed it. I know this because I am a spider.
As far as I know, you eat at least eight spiders in your lifetime, not per year.
no you do not

NO
I see you have heard that a normal person eats 8 house spiders when they are sleeping, yet over the course of a lifetime! Regular house spiders should do no harm.
A common urban legend passed around via email is that that average person will swallow 8 spiders while sleeping during their lifetime.This is true. It isa "statistic" made up for the sole purpose of being passed around on the internet to gross people out. Although it is disgusting many need spiders to survive.See the related links section for the Snopes article about it.
swallowed a spider and feel some slight pain inside
so people say dont believe in it tho!!! only if your unlucky ha ha ha
You would hope not but apparently its about an average of 8 spiders per week *Average of none you mean. You can't swallow a spider without waking up, and if you were to swallow a spider while sleeping your mouth would have to be open (and facing straight up) very wide, and the spider would have to climb down its silk line perfectly into the back of your throat without touching your lips or tongue. The second it reaches your throat you would have to take a swallow and let it go down.. All in all, it just doesn't happen.
because spiders do not have jaws for chewing.
This is an urban myth. In order for a sleeping person to swallow a live spider there would involve many highly unlikely circumstances. There are no formal scientific or medical records of anyone ever swallowing a spider while sleeping.
Humans don't consume anything while sleeping.
Yes, you do eat spiders in your sleep. Spiders like wet, damp, dry places. When you sleep with your mouth open, they crawl in and wake you up. Your instincs are to swallow once you wake up, so there goes the spider! Whether or not you eat 8, we are not posotive of the exact number. Hope this helps! :)
No, spiders do not get on your face. :) Believe me.
of course
about 7
