Spiders are great and I don't understand why people fear them. I can't wait to get to Aus and get myself a resident huntsman in the house to keep the flies and cockroaches at bay :)

Spiders no more want to attack humans then a mouse would want to attack a tiger, its pity much suicide considering we are thousands of times larger then them. They only bite people in self defence when attacked first.

I reckon the creepy crawlie your most likely to get bitten by is an ant. Not the tiny ones but in my locale it's bull ants and jumping jacks. The latter being right little bastards.
