Me and our lass moved to France last year - you should see the size of some of the spiders that get into our house (not to mention the 6ft snake I found in the compost heap)..........................

Luckily O/H was in and he dealt with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad-dad Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I currently have a massive specimen trundling around my house. Legs like 4 rugby players glued together ……. and it can't half shift. Got a bit attached actually, so I've given it a name "Bus width" (8 feet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hadron Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 They used to be camouflaged on the carpet but now we have hard floors they stick out a mile and can get some speed up. I chuck them in the pond for the fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I chuck them in the pond for the fish Now THAT made me chuckle. (Apart from chucking them into the fish pond.!!) House spiders are harmless and are a good way to keep 'Flying insects' like Flies under control. An old saying..."If you want to live and Thrive, leave the spider alive...
