I got it! I can freeze it by using dust off! I can hold the can upside down and when I uncover it if it is still alive I can freeze the bastard to death!
Do it like this -User was banned for this post- Infraction for NotYou: Please dont post this big an image in the forums.
No need, its dead haha but I did it anyways (did not record it haha...) Bad thing is though that it curled up and maybe in retrospect it seemed much larger last night. Might be because it curled up who knows. EDIT: Oh and it was a Wolf Spider, right now i got the battery to the camera charging and I am trying to move it's legs out because it kinda balled up.
Ok got the pictures here... Its big but not as big as I thought so I kinda feel bad for this but maybe because it was dark and in the rush it seemed huge to me but anyways here they are... The spray bottle I had it pinned under The beast itself next to a 1976 quarter Oh snap NotYou, you are from Colorado? What part? (Oh.. it seems he got banned for the image...) If these are too big let me know and I will remove them.
That's the "beast"? You best never go to South America, then. And by all means, stay away from Australia. Spiders have freakin' health bars, there.
You know I actually went to Florida last month... God I wish I lived there, you guys have lizards running all over the place!
Yea like I said it looked big last night and I sure as hell would not want to be bit by it. (*sigh* I guess im just a wuss)

Jeez! Those are facking huge! (Note to self, Do not ever, ever, ever go to facking brazil) EDIT: Those pasty ones Camel Spiders?
I don't trust Wikipedia for actual facts. Just because you say one thing, doesn't make it true. I said they're poisonous in my first post; and they are. I never said they were lethal. You can let yourself out of the thread now.
Yes, and I didn't really take those pictures I was looking through my pictures folders for the ones I did have, but they're buried somewhere under thousands of other pictures. I'll find them some time tho and post them up...
Yea, that sounds good cant wait to see them, but I kinda feel silly now for overreacting over "the beast"... Maybe I will go to the pet shop and buy a tarantula and release it in my house lmao.
I worked in the pest industry in Florida for a few years and here are some pointers for spiders or any other creepy crawly. Check and spray your attic. Check the outside hose bibs (faucets). Water is a main source of attracting pests of all kinds. Fix if it leaks. For those living in Florida or the south the black widow is commonly known to live behind water fixtures (more than people know) and children's wooden board type playground areas. Check and spray if warranted and appropriate. The brown recluse favors these areas along with the garage as a perfect habitual place to live. Clip any over hanging tree limps or branches or leaves. Critters use these as a gateway to your home. Don't bring cardboard boxes into the house. Such as a new tv, appliances or even a small packaged radio. Take it out of the box other than your kitchen or living room or home area. Pests like to eat the glue off paper and boxes and brown paper bags so remove them, especially the ones in the attic. Should spray around the entire perimeter of the home and alternate pesticides each month. Bugs can build up a resistance to some chemicals. Ok..........might as well throw in that wood placed by the perimeter of your home is begging for termites to come feast. This pertains more to the southern regions but termites move underground and will evidentially find their meal along your home. Place any wood (branches, railroad ties, etc) a distance from the home or at least 8+ inches above ground. Oh yea.......a spider is not an insect its an arachanids and not all insect sprays are effective against them although I see the photo had spiders displayed on it. Make sure to read the label first on any pesticide. Anyway, if you have read all of this you've gain a wealth of info on protecting your home. I'm sure it will help.
Thanks for the advise especially about the wood - we have some wood stacked up next to the house for firewood - looks like I will be moving that pretty soon - although we have routine pest control services - I don't want to have problems...
A pest control service is good. Termite control is another thing. Termites burrow from the ground up and sprays are surface type chemicals at best. Termites move in colonies and in your area pluto6 is the Formosan termite that was unleashed awhile back and has grown since. They are more destructive than the "normal" ones and twice the colony size. I've seen them burrow through and under bathroom tiles. Bathrooms are usually the number one interior point of contact by termites . Thanks for reading all of that post btw.
Thanks again - I guess I should clarify - as a long time homeowner - I have both termite and pest control. It only takes one home with termite damage to realize that you are going to pay for termite control - either all the while of owning the house, or in one lump sum when you go to sell it...
