I was just about to walk down the stairs into the basement when I saw this little charm…
Just for comparison, here is my lovely hand next to it. Sorry it’s a bit whited out, couldn’t get my flash to not go:
The thing is almost the size of my hand ![]()
Please subscribe, or else I will cry. Do you really want to make a programmer cry?

I see spiders just like that in my basement a lot. I always vacuum them up, but they never seem to go away.

I prefer the crush-with-shoe technique

Hey one week ago I killed similar one, at 4 AM the giant spider was hanging around on my desktop without one leg.
Exotic spiders are much more absorbing I think, especially ones that live on the trees. They are extremely fast, so when your spider escapes from the terrarium you won’t ever catch him on your own. Also, this sort of spiders is much more dangerous than other ones, so I still cannot figure out why there is a group of die-hard fans that keep these killers at home.

lol, at least this daddy long leg isn’t dangerous. But a few months ago one really scared me. I was sitting at my computer chair, felt something crawling up my leg, looked down and a spider about that same size was running up my leg. I got up yelling like crazy trying to kill the darn thing.
Finally got it in some tissue though, and it took a trip down the toilet

Honesty now I’m spending my time on fighting against damn earwigs, no idea what do they do on 4th floor but I am sure they are much more pesky than commando spiders.
