as above, apparently it tarantula size and is now on the loose.

i've been all round the area with my CSI type Surefire flashlight and it cant be found!!!!

i think this behaviour is totally irresponsible!!!

I agree, once spotted they must be removed or destroyed immediately

WRX_Dazza

i think hes gone behind the bathpanel !!!! - only to feed and get bigger !!!!!!!

OMG we'll have to move. no alternative.

StickyMicky

and climb out and run over your face when you are in the bath?

lol


mine "spots" them but never kills them either, complains to me to do something about it, and then complains when i kill them because you are supposed to set them free

DB07P1

i hope its not the one someone found in there house in scarborough where i live...it had an actual size piccy of it and it was the size of a cd!!!he didnt kill it...just put out in the garden....maybe its hitched a lift and found a new life at yours

SiPie

Never understood people that kill spiders, if you don't like them or are phobic and really need to remove them, then just put a glass over them, slide a sheet of paper underneath and escort them off the premises

Don't drop them or throw them as although they seem fine and scuttle off, their nervous system will have been damaged and they'll soon die. Place them gently and let them get on with their business of catching disease spreading flies

WRX_Dazza

dont get me wrong, i have handled spiders before and gently taken them outside, but this one caused major panic in the household this morning (lots of banging about and screams) from the bathroom area, so has been metally built up to be the mother of all arachnids !!!!!

i cant take the risk!!!!

SiPie........with all due respect....... to put a glass over them and a sheet of paper under it, you HAVE TO GET CLOSE TO IT!!!!!

SiPie

Admittedly some people are beyond help, maybe a small flamethrower would be more suitable

Just torch the place totally.

I agree with Sipie.

They are more likely to be a force for good anyway as he says.

I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit.....

WRX_Dazza

the last one went up the vacuum, and i put some clingfilm over the end to stop him getting back out again !!!

he was so big, i could feel him shoot up the tube !!!!

i bet he gets me when i change the bag and he'll be right-royally pi55ed off

It was probably a she and she's going to sit in there and lay a squillion eggs, and they're going to hatch out and get you in the night!

My mam knows someone who bought a banana plant type thing, it was from another country anyways, she looked after the plant but it was dying, she noticed the soil had a hole in and looked like it had moved, she found a dead male tarantula in a bedroom so knew there must be a female somewhere, she got some people in to have a look and they had to fumigate the whole house, the female had found a warm place to have her babies, it was in a duvet in a spare room but the babies had gone! She still lives in the same house, there's no way I could still live there, I scream everytime I see a spider and recently they have been HUGE

Don't go anywhere without my Raid bug killer spray, there's spiders everywhere!

We have three cats. They "remove" the spiders before we can rescue them. Failing that it's the glass and paper method, although you'd need a jug of some sorts to get over a tarantula.

WRX_Dazza

took me 10 mins to get out the house after checking my trainers, double checking them and then jacket for the 8 legged beastie!!!

i'm gonna have the bath panel off in a minute and track him down. with a blowtorch.

spider at large = no sleep !!!

gives me goosebumps thinking about it lol

Conkers

Just go get some and put them in the corners of each room.


bunch of bloody wusses.....

oldsplice

Fazackerly!

That's what I do. Trouble is, our local conker trees have been hit with the blight this year, and they have no conkers! I need to refresh my stash!

pauld37

Conkers? do they string 'em up, have a game, and get squashed in the process?

WRX_Dazza

hahaahha, thats what i was thinking...

this spider will eat conkers, so i'm lead to belive anyway
