phoenix44 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi everyone, I found a spider in my room this morning, then turned the place upside down to catch it because i was convinced it was big enough to harm a bird :lol: What is it? best to know before I think of a name for it.

Dixon1990 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 A common urban legend passed around via email is that that average person will swallow 8 spiders while sleeping during their lifetime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefish Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I get similar spiders in my bedroom. When it rains more come inside I took my cats into my room last night so they could look out for the spiders! We also get hunter spiders but they don't both me any more. Hopefully i'll get used to the big black ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted April 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 i played with it for a while. let it run along my hands, and then when i got bored, and rusty got jealous I put in on a tree outside. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquila Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Seriously guys...I'm not impressed. NZ was not suppose to have spiders like this when I decided to move here! Spiders and me are not friends. :evil: I have a pic of a 'giant' spider that was in my shower one night but its on my bf's cell phone...I will try to get it. I think its the same one that came in about a month earlier and was sitting on a pile of clothes next to the laundry basket... The third time he comes in will be the last time :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tHEcONCH Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Hi everyone, I found a spider in my room this morning, then turned the place upside down to catch it because i was convinced it was big enough to harm a bird :lol: What is it? best to know before I think of a name for it. It is a male Dolomedes spider - absolutely harmless native. The females are considerably plumper. Just carry it gently outside and put it under some leaves. If you piss about with it too long it will die of stress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
