    When I was single I sat in my living room one evening watching TV....out of the corner of my eye I saw a massive Wolfe Spider walking across my floor. I jumped up on my chair and started to scream when I realized that I was alone and had to kill it before it got away. Scariest thing was to get off the chair and find a weapon.

    I'm with most of you - a good spider is a DEAD one!

    Well, not a problem unless someone brings one back from Australia. It is amazing to see it carry the mouse.

    Not sure but I think if you get rid of the mice the snakes MIGHT leave(not sure on that)

    I have a friend in Australia that posted a pic of a Huntsman in her garage. I swear it looked like the leg spread from one side to the other must have been 4 feet or more. She says they are docile towards humans. She sweeps them out with a broom. That was all I needed. Never, ever going to Australia.
