Help Needed By Someone Not Terrified Of Spiders


Recommended Posts

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.

well i cant help you any more only suggestion is to get a b/f and looking at this thread no one from here as most of us are probably bigger girls than you are when it comes to spiders :bunny:

it was a mumy spider

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:

Mummy Spider - it carries hundreds of its babies, all poisonous ones, on her back for about 40 days...

Here's an article with photos that will guarantee tingle your spine...

yuk, thats evil.

But that shape is more what my spider looked like than the old huntsman.... D Day is tomorrow, still dont know If Im going to drive it, yet am very reluctant to return the car to the offending garage where the whole crisis begun!

Seriously who owns a spider as a pet? Weird...do they come when you call....lol

    • I'll just leave this with, holy shit, those cars at work are awesome, and this will look wicked!
    • Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...
    • Do you have any before and after photos? That's $200 just for the hydro blasting?
    • It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
