I remember going on the first date with my current girlfriend, a huntsman walked across the inside of the windscreen. I shat myself, but put on a brave face, calmly pointed it out and then killed it for her (it was in her car).

Now that she knows who I really am she can kill her own damn spiders.

Close your eyes and eat it, good protien and it's what your body would do as a reflex if you were asleep.

So why not?

Also It has been said they taste like Thai chicken.

A insecticide like "Baygon" External is useful, you'll need to spray all along your external windows and door jam, all around, not just the bottom. and create a barrier. Good for every 3-6 months. As summer is approaching, all these insects, they get active again, looking for food, that's why they're all coming out. I would squeeze any little spiders I found but those big ones are so disgusting I would use an insect spray and won't bother to risk getting it all splatered over, and wait till they're through their agonising death and vacuum it or sweep it away with a broom.spraying your tyres with external barrier insect spray might be a good idea. after all they will need to climb through something, tyres...

Worst I ever had was an evil looking black one out the back, near the door. Didn't want the dogs to get bitten, so I crushed it.

Ever seen those movies, where they kill something, and it 'dissolves' into a million other little somethings?

Exactly what happened. I would almost swear that there were more little spiders than the big spider had bodyweight originally.

As soon as I stomped it, it literally looked like it melted into a million little evil looking spiders, and it wasn't until after we took care of them (with spray, of course :bunny:), that I found the original dead one.

Scared the absolute crap out of me.

Heh, I had a pet trapdoor spider as a kid, used to pop flies/bugs/etc into the aquarium with it and it was the coolest how it popped open it's little trap door to grab them and eat them. Had a huntsman and a brown snake too but my sister dobbed me in and I had to let them go :bunny:

      I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up

      Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
