So I'm heading down to the toilet at work.. Open the door, turn on the light.. Look up, and there's this big huntsman sitting in the corner above and behind the toilet.

I didn't need to go anymore.

If he looks small in the photo, is say his leg span is easily the size of my hand. Not the biggest huntsman, but still. I'm semi-fine with huntsman spiders, just only when I can see them.

Now there is a (smaller) huntsman spider sitting on the wall next to my motorbike in the carport at work.

IT BETTER STAY AWAY FROM MY BIKE

I'd rather not have a big huntsman crawl out while I'm out riding my bike home or something. STAY OUT OF MY HELMET TOO

Jozlyn

Look at those lovely long legs!

Jukilian

He's striped from what I can see. I can take a closer photo if he's there when I leave to go home.

Just for you, @Jozlyn‌

Oh my!

The huntsman has disappeared. Replaced by this imposter in the ceiling.

I have no idea what kind of spider this one is.

Poor thing.

Perhaps it just traded its other two legs for the giant laser eye.

I give you my worst enemy, the Loxosceles Laeta or commonly known as "Corner Spider" a very common spider in my country.
This little barstard likes to hide inside our houses and his venom is lethal, is called Corner Spider because she hides in corners and cracks, places with low light and hard access. If you get stung by one of these little shits you have 24 hours to get the antidote or you die, but that is if you are big and lucky enough. Once the venom is in the blood stream, you have around 60 minutes to get to the hospital, otherwise you go into anaphylactic shock and die. shes the reason i hate spiders with all my soul.


gawd i hate spiders so much.

Holy crap, next you'll see spiders hunting with sticks n stones, then they will discover agriculture and writing, and then we die. Mark my words.
