He took one look and said "holy sh!t" well impressed

What sort of spider is this then? love the glint in its eye!!

I've always been under the impression it's a Huntsman but not 100%

I reckon it is tho, as like you say 'the glint in it's eye'.

I've said before and will say again, they wink at me when I chase them with pest spray. I've got a few pics of this happening!

Here's one, look! ... one eye is closed! ...

can i just say dont think id make it to yours if invited for a bbq

i run a mile when i see a cockroach, sad but i get the kids to put a cup over them til hubby gets home.....it wasnt the spiders i came to oz for

kels x

A cockroach, ahh where's that pic of the 2" one! ...

Well to be honest none of us like the damn things, but ARE getting used to em now, you gotta!

Excluding our redbacks we see prob a huntsman a week or fortnight, a cockroach once every few months, never seen a snake or much else to be honest.

It's all good! ...

Heard Nic scream when she opened to dishwasher! ...

Told it came up the pipe somehow! ...



On the plus side we also see these ...





Better than fox's and pigeons anyday! ...

Sleep calls!

thats ******* huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think your spiders just love having their photos taken I'm sure they're smiling for the camera!

Cockroaches don't bother me, except that they spread germs and diseases. I've found a good way to kill them, and ants, without turning the kitchen into chemical weapons wasteland..... Ajax Spray and Wipe, kills them faster than the flysprays and cleans the worktops too.....Now that's what I call "brand power"

Things like roos and koalas are really a plus though aren't they, I saw some wallabies just chilling out in someone's front garden up in the hills a few weeks back. Rainbow lorrikeets (sp?) have been nibbling and squabbling over bottlebrush flowers in our garden and a kingfisher comes in for the geckos every now and then.

****ing Hell

Oh no! ... they're actually laughing at me! ...

We have this spray called Mortein and altho NOT meant for spiders, it does work! When I chase the buggers they start laughing and winking ... I swear it!

I've got other pics of them winking, I swear it's true! ... but am up for work in 5 hours so time to hit the hay! ...

Will post them tomorrow ...
