found devouring one of the many small cockroaches that have taken up residence in our electronics equipment (that particular invasion only started after we had the pest controllers come and kill all the beasties outside... white ants being endemic to our area) Only worrying thing? the spider decided to eat his dinner at 4yr old height on the door frame... caused some consternation... waiting for him to move after digesting his big meal. Spider is about 6-7cm across when legs spread out
Not a good shot, but he wasn't easy to pin down, and I wanted to show you how big he was (and how beautiful). He was on the inside of my bedroom screen door until I manoeuvred him outside.

The larger Huntsman spider (similar to a Wolf spider) loses out to the Brown Widow spider. The Widow had 3 egg sacs the day before this. Perhaps she found the Huntsman made a snack of her eggs. This morning she was huge so I have a feeling she's working on replacements.

We tolerate these spiders inside our house because they really clean up other nuisance insects. They can flatten themselves out and squeeze into very narrow spaces.
They often get into cars and their sudden appearance while you are driving can be quite alarming and dangerous. Only the true arachnophile can let a large one of these critters roam freely around their car!
