See I told you we would catch one, well Phil did and this creepy thing was in our bedroom, right enough this is a smaller one than some we have had, arent they horrible...uuuurrrrrrggggghhhhh they give me the creeps...of course as soon as the camera came out the horrible thing curled up, I will see if I can be brave enough to get another later when it has relaxed enough to unfurl, the legs are massive when they come out...the glass is clear glass and dosent show things bigger honestly (I wish it did lol) and I put a distress ink bottle for size...soz if I have freaked you but at least I warned you lolxxx

eeeekkkk
OMG Mina, what on earth are you feeding him? He is heeuuuge!! I don't think I could cope with catching one that size to throw outside. I hope we don't get any like that.
Have a fab weekend.
Love, Andrea xx
Oh my, Mina! It's really big! I think it could be perfect for a Halloween card, me too! Hugs, Miria x
I do feel for you, Mina, having been plagued by these Tegenaria in my own home. I love Lisa's idea of using them on a card but my preference these days is to do away with them as quickly and as humanely as possible. I have found that putting them outside just enables them to meet new friends. Spiders have "homing" abilities like pigeons and they invite their friends over which results in yet more spiders in the house! I did find (so far) that spraying the carpet with walking insect killer seems to have reduced the number of sightings this year. I had 13 of them last year in the space of about 3 weeks and I was a nervous wreck! Hugs, Lesley
That is horrifying, Mina - I would be half a mile down the road in a second if I saw that in my house!!! The only good spider is a dead spider!!
Julie
OMG you could get a saddle on it. Totally horrible, makes me shiver looking at it.

I am very afraid of spiders but couldn't resist looking! Ahh that is just way too much....do they sting? I know that makes it a million times worse.
I have only had a couple like this Mina and they fraked me out....your so brave on your own most of the time too....omg...it's horrid....good luck with this little problem....I'd pray for snow...lol...xxx
They are a terrible size there is about 6 of them having a party in OH shed, I wouldnt go in.

Oh YUK! I'd be screaming down the road!! hate the horrible things, hugs Liz xx
ps - Please can you make a card and post it on your blog so that this arachnasaurus is displaced from my dashboard! It gives me the creeps each time I catch sight of him. Hugs, Lesley
OMG Mina, this thing looks awful! We've had some spiders here, but thank goodness nothing as big as this one...I think I wouldn't live if I saw that walking around in my house. I't giving me goosebobs right now! I prefer seeing one of your gorgeous card hun LOL!! Have a great non spider weekend, hugs Frea

AAAAACCCCKKKKK! Yuck - I would scream too if I saw those things at home. And that's a small one? Yeesh. Can you spray them? or spray to keep them out?
omg my son would be running for the hills shout mum get rid of it. lol. mine you he is a bonny size.give me sipders over mice any day
Scuse my language but bloody hellfire - he is mahoosive!!! I don't actually mind spiders and quite happily live in harmony with them in my house (would rather have spiders than flies any day of the week!) I swear they're getting bigger every year though!!! Hugs, Marie xx
Wait--this is a small one? AND it looks even bigger when it stretches its legs out?!? HOLY MOLY! Oh, Mina! How will you sleep tonight? Oh! How will I sleep tonight?! LOL. :)
Too bad it is not a Vampire. Vampires cannot enter a house unless the owner invites them in. I know you would never do that!
Ok, that's a fair sized spider! Ughhh...I really do feel for you, there has GOT to be some way to get those monsters out of YOUR house, before they all get together and decided to do a hostile take over! Have to say that you and Phil are braver, or crazier, than I am, I'd have just turned him to paste! That sucker must spin a Huge web! Will be looking forward to the updates. At least now Phil's seen 'em too!

OK I love love love spiders, I caught a biggins and he's become a family pet...always the oddball am I!

Okay, I confess I thought you were exagerating the size, but he/she is quite large :o)
Jackie xx
Hi I quite like spiders this is a cracker !! Wow I never have any here must be the cat !! Lol Kitty ;0)
Well Mina if thats the wee one, I'd hate to meet Mammy spider!! The males are usually the smaller ones and the massive ones are the females. So yucky looking. Hope you had a good day yesterday, I hear you met Maddy too. Cant believe I missed you. Anyway, hope you spent loads of money and got tonnes of goodies. I was a wee bit disappointed with it this year, there definitely wasnt as much this time around. Lee xx
I don't want to make you scared, but these guys always come in 2somes!!
Where there's one, there's also the partner.........We often had that happen here........EEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKK
lol!

Eek! I am glad the live at your house and not at mine. I am not terrified of spiders, but if they reach a certain size I am getting a little less relaxed.

Oh my goodness...brrr this is totally creeeepy. I hate these ugly thing....The hair on my arms is standing straight up. Ush...
OMG! just seen your friend!
My blog has been playing up for a few days.
Missed this the other day.
Wish I haden't looked now ;)
Mel. xx
Arrhhhhh! He's a big'un - looks all furry too!
My most memorable 'spider moment' was calling down to my teenage kids to bring me a glass "there's a big spider" I shouted - as they came running up the stairs to see how 'big' I meant they realised when I told them "we'll need a bigger glass!!!" I had to 'encourage' him to tuck his legs in to get the PINT glass over him! I also took photo's - next to a light switch, as I knew hubby would never believe how brave I'd been!!!!!
