Tales of the huntsman...
There are a lot of arachnophobes out there (me included) that dread the thought of a close encounter of a hairy kind. I can just picture myself being completly paranoid and checking everything (in, out, under, visor in car etc etc), so what's it like with the furry little critters, are they in abundance, or rarely seen?
Do you have a huntsman tale to share?

Weve only had 4 in the house in 5 years but my Mrs has had two drop on her inside her car, luckily both times she was in the driveway & not doing 100Ks along the freeway. Weve since cut down the bushes from neighbours house which overhung our driveway & had no problems. And yes she did freak out when a huge furry spider dropped into her lap.

For pity sake, warn a girl next time before posting something so hideous! I nearly had a pink fit seeing those boogly eyes looking at me.
This got me thinking, how on earth do you kill them? (TEE HEE!)

Spray them with hairspray, then when it hardens & they can't move pick them up & throw them out.

Nothing like waking up and seeing eight long and thin hairy legs camped on the wall above you.
