Re: Eight-legged lodgers on the move

I have had to kill a few spiders lately, as thtey are as big as coffee cups, and the last one I killed looked like the one from the BBC page, I don't care what they are called they are spiders and I am bloody scared of them, so they must die.

sorry I cannot pick them up and throw them away, or move them on, they must perish so I can rest easy and get to sleep at night.

Re: Eight-legged lodgers on the move

I like spiders - this time of year some species set up the 'last chance saloon' with amazing webs, outside , hoping to get enough food to last through the winter - usually, inside our house is too dry for most spiders ...

Pretty sure I've seen a couple of these around the house, about 2 inches from one end of the leg to the end of the opposing leg, and can really dart about!!
