That is how we deal with them except I use a drinking glass.

We allow huntsman's to stay in the house except the bedroom.

I dread the thought of waking with one on me.

Who needs a dog in the 'tilly tray?

Looks like a Huntsman to me , we have a lot running around in side at the moment , I am moving around 3 every day at the moment all about the size of a 20cent piece.[bigsad]

My wife got bitten by one many years ago , bite was saw for a few days.

Almost forgot, my most "memorable" experience with a Huntsman,......I was driving in the center of Melbourne many years ago in my Mk 1 Austin Lancer, & a large Huntsman dropped down from the R.V. mirror on to my lap. I stopped the car quicker than immediately, in the middle of traffic & got out of the car. Can't remember what happened after that.
Pickles.

Well , you did stop the car Pickles, a friend’s wife, who could wheel spin on the starter motor departed the carport, up the street and pulled the sun visor down; as the spider landed on her lap , she de bussed right and the Barina was left to mount the neighbour’s fence.
