My Grandma saw a right big hairy geeza of a spider become supper for a lizard in Thailand. Apparently they sound crunchy.

Haha!

Thats how we had to be rid of the tourist, we put it in a -22'c freezer.

Josh that pic is nasty I couldn't go that far, holding one in my hands is enough!

Yep. I'm alrite if they're not moving (well for littluns at least.. a tarantula would freak me out whether it was moving or not)


I find these work a treat



I may have been know to use one of these in the past. Of course I don't own one, that'd be highly illegal

I saw some kind of jumping spider while in france recently and it moved so fast it looked like stop motion animation. Very cool, I liked that jumping spider.

Edit: Anyway bed time, night night.

Aye, saw it when I was about 10. Was a little bit scary then, although I saw a clip of it recently on youtube and thought it was hilarious how bad the CGI was

Well done MBK!!!
Now don't be afraid to rid yourself of any others invading your living space.

Spiders (and snakes)....
Kill them all I say.


We have a fair amont of these living about the property.
Needless to say... any that decide to come inside are dealt with in quick fashion.
