you guys are no fun..

huntsmans are good to have around, as with daddy long legs. both seem to keep other nasty spiders away.

Huntsman will give you a nip (ask me how I know!), just not poisonous

its ok, I'm just gonna buy a hammer as soon as we land, Oh and one of them hats with the dropbear repellent corks[:x)]

nah its safe here, you usually get a warning of some kind before anything nasty gets ya. Usually from the other bloke! lol
Bring your Ghia with your stuff too.

oh i know too! the bite was a bit itchy for a while.

Our Kelpie used to eat huntsmen. We had a big huntsman in the house one time and were trying to keep the dog away from it but he just trotted up to the spider and went Chomp. He loved them.

so far no redbacks after welding in patchs in floor pan. yes I think redback is WA and it tastes awful!!

I've had a huntsmann run across the dash to the drivers side a-pillar while I was driving it! For some reason I've always had spider problems with my car, fortunately no red backs.
I have however a red back crawel into my hauler bag with all of radio control car gear in it. I'm very thankfully I saw it go in there.

Just treat everything as though it will kill you and you'll be fine [:x)]

ive had a medium sized huntsman run across the outside of my motorbike helmet visor. then once it was gone i had no idea where it went...

another time i walked into the bank and halfway through the transaction i got a funny look and "theres a spider on you". hunstman had decided it didn't like the bike and prefered my jacket instead [88]

We had better warn nikmag about funnelweb spiders as well.they are only poisonous to any thing without a tail....Humans.
