Just saw a HUGE spider downstairs near washer, what would you do?

I don't know whether I'll ever go down there again, it was the size of a big mans hand. Would you kill it by going nuts with the spray, ask God to take it back into the garden or get the teenagers to empty the next wash load and not say a word? Seriously, I levitated out of there I was travelling so fast, google Huntsman, give yourselves a fright.

    lol I agree! I would hurry up and kill it before it goes somewhere else you don't want it to be. OR before it starts reproducing. Grab something big and squish it... I'd say spray it with bugspray but that would give it a chance to run all over the place *shivers*

    Just kill it quick! Good luck to you

    i had a massive huntsman in my bedroom the other night - OMG! so you want to know what to do? scream!

    but seriously, bug spray is kind of a waste as it doesnt always kill them and they just run away and then you can't sleep wondering where they are. i considered attacking with a very long handled broom but i was too scared to even get that close (can you tell i have arachnaphobia!) so i got a neighbour to remove the intruder (then checked ever corner of my house in case it had followers, and sprayed every door frame with mortein black!)

    however, when no one is available to help maintain your sanity, another effective killer i have found is a combination of hairspray and air freshener (the hairspray freezes the blighter while the air freshener, err, makes it smell nice?), whilst wearing heavy clothing, kitchen gloves and boots (just incase it tries to attack back!!!!) then vaccuum it up and get someone else to empty the vaccuum!

    over-dramatic? moi?

    Use some indoor moretin gaurd. This will push the spider out of the house. We had heaps when I first baught the house. and after spraying they now live in my shed... They don't bother me I really like them, but the scare the hell out of the missus. I now have quiet time in shed with my spiders, beer, and radio blaring.

    Find him and smash him dead, using a paper, or tissue.

    No spray! That will just add more toxic to the environment.

    Take him outside, using a cup and a piece of cardboard underneath...what did he do to you?

    Source(s): If there were no spiders, we'd be over run with creepie crawlies.
