    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.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    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.

    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.
