we had an invasion yesterday.... they were there all the time, but the extreme heat meant the little darlings ALL came out of their hiding places to cool off... the tin roof had them dangling down all over...

HE sprayed last night and this morning he is doing the broom thing....

Its amazing the different shapes, sizes and depth of colour you get in just one species...

We have yoghurt ... but it's pronounced yo-ghurt ... been a pretty active spider season here actually, slowly building up a tolerance to the hand-sized ones ...

Somehow the mosquitoes in the summer don't seem all that bad.

Hand sized spiders.......how do you put them under a glass and throw them out

Here in the sunshine state, my family has one rule, if its a spider, snake scorpion or other deadly creature it is dead immediately. Lizards we try to catch and set free.

First Huntsman we see I tried to put a pint glass over but it was bigger and it's legs dangled out of the glass ...lol. He then tore off down the hallway (running along the wall), I called the dog to sort him, he wasn't bothered! ... so out came the Mortein,



Which I'm sure I heard it laugh as I sprayed it, so squashed with foot! (heard bones break during the process!)

She is a whizz with an old ice-cream container and some cardboard, no living thing gets harmed on our patch if we can help it ... unless it's me
