janine the party queen Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I was just mopping the floor when I spotted a rather large spider crawl out from under the wine rack.Being the brave person that I am,I went to put a glass over it so my O/H could get rid of it later.As I did ,hundreds of baby spiders shot off its back and ran all over the floor. This thing is about the size of a 10 cent coin,brown/black with lighter brown stripes down its back.Any one know what it is ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LKC Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I would have required a change of undies! Thankfully, other than two mahoosive huntsmen, a big house spider that ran over my foot and hundreds of daddy long legs, we've not had too many!

Guest guest17301 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Oh...my...God....baby eight legged freaks??? Too much information!! Poor Janine, I hope you have recovered from the shock. I suppose even spiders have to reproduce though! It's like something off the film Arachnophobia! They are scary and repulsive but hey, we live in Australia, It's a small price to pay!
