If you're referring to those bird-eating spiders though... :p Well, they're only really outside, and aren't in the way. If they make a web that's in the way, you just take it down with a stick. They usually get the idea and go make it somewhere else. They're not common at all down here though. Golden Orb Weavers, on the other hand |
And fire. Lots of fire. |

| I have enough trouble with the little wolf spiders we get around here haha, arachnophobia is great. I found a brown recluse in my room in the last house I lived in, and it sketched me out for weeks. :nervous: |

Nah, the Huntsmans are pretty slow and chilled. It's the Wolf Spiders that are psycho and run/jump around the place. |

:nervous: that, lol.
Poisonous stuff gets smashed with something/anything, or hosed down with bug spray. |

Mine aren't, especially at night they get all rambunctious and run around. My last place had a few hockey stick dents in the walls :mad: |

| My brother got bitten by a black widow a few years back. He basically had to sit in the hospital for 16 hours on morphine because they couldn't give him antivenom for some reason (pretty sure because they had no way of knowing for sure it was a widow, and if given the wrong antivenom it can straight kill you). Even with all the painkillers he was still in a good bit of pain for a large majority of his stay, poisonous stuff scares the out of me. |

You still got to admire spiders for inventing the Web.  |
