Super Giant Spiders!

Terry,

What the fook is the story with the huge spiders that are invading homes these days?

Spiders and me get along in the sense that they stay over in their little bit of the place and I reside in my corner but now some of these spiders are FOOKING huge. They could eat my head in a few bites! Is it just my gaff that they are evolving into SUPER FOOKING SPIDERS?

Anyone else seen these huge b'stards?

Reading this thread is making my skin crawl.

I remember i woke up one night and felt a big enough spider crawl across my face. Freaked me out.

(BTW here's an interesting fact: The average person will swallow 2 spiders while sleeping during their lifetime.)

I'm not saying people are all the same, but in my experience those that have names like that always come across to me as exceptionally smug.Maybe its me or just 100% of the few I've come across?
In this case you think the parents would have just flattened it? It's not native maybe it is (unlikely) the only one and they could have ended it there?

Do you mean the spiders or the self absorbed idiots? I'm assuming spiders but I think it would be more difficult to get rid of the latter:D

One night I woke up with my leg being itchy, naturally I scratched it, felt a bit of dirt and threw it on the ground where it made loud noise followed by a tapping noise. Me thinking it was a mouse that I disturbed by throwing something at it(yes it was that loud) turned the light on to look at the cute mouse what I got was a spider with a 2inch leg span. It was on my ****ing leg and I picked it up and then it was trying to get under the bed. I don't mind spiders as long as they stay away from me.

Those big ones are actually native to here, they are called house spiders, live in the walls and come out normally at the end of summer to breed and to find a new nesting ground. I lived in a place that was riddled with them. I also got one land on my shoulder but that was only about 1cm not near as bad as the 2inch one.

They are quite big alright. I didn't mind spiders in the past when they were small but now they gotta go!

Forget the spiders, what about the gazillions of flies around. I was bitten by flies the other day about 6 times, yes bitten, the little feckers are getting out of control. I was up a ladder swinging a piece of 2" x 1" at em I could have died.

The flies are clearly getting way above their station. Very uppity of late. Who do they think they are?

I always knew the new fly trend of working out would lead to steroid abuse. :mad:

Most fun method of killing flys. Killing moths with a BB gun is pretty sweet too though.

Dosent matter, bad luck will fall upon you if you kill a spider. You can get a humane spider catcher and release them in the wild, no excuse.

That's what they look like? If so, I am sure I've seen some around these last couple of months. Little buggers.

Always have a newspaper ready..

I don't mind them as long as they are not in my house.. otherwise all bets are off.. don't like the idea of them crawling around in my space.. especially as more and more tropicals are that managed to migrate over.. and they could be poisonous..

They have been in the UK quite a while and are a quite passive. If these are surviving there is no reason why the widow and redback cant as the are all related.

Hate fly sprays. Any natural ways of getting rid of them . Papers don't work, he's damn too quick.
