go out at night with a torch!
After finding my first red back and turning it into a key ring, I went out just before torch in hand and there are loads of red backs of all different sizes, happily lurking along the pool fencing.
So for all spider phobics me included there are millions of the little blighters. I even found a baby one that has yet to turn that delightful red colour, defo baby red back though so all go out now and if you want to see a red back look along the bottom of your pool fencing. You are bound to find one somewhere.

Re: go out at night with a torch!
Sounds like you need to get the spray from the supermarket or hardware and spray around you house to help.... its about $25 and you spray everywhere and helps to controls bugs and spiders for months.... I HAD to do it for Christina as she said she would just call out some professional insect company to do it while i was out working, and it was one of those guys that told me that this stuff is just as good as what the pros use and did.

[QUOTE=DollyDaydream]
I would need several tins to do that! I dunno I kinda like my keyring its in the car, I'm now waiting for the next victim to come along. Have seen a suitable candidate on the pool fence. Have also got what I think is a baby red back, its white though where the red should be. Any ideas as to what it was, as its stopped moving.
