I think I saw a 50’s Sci-Fy movie with a cameo of a very young Clint Eastwood regarding that.

'Huntsmans are always welcome here because we're surrounded on three sides by a dairy cattle farm, and have seven more bulls across the road, so there's loads of flies. We need and appreciate all the spiders.'

Smart lady.

...Huntsmans are always welcome here because we're surrounded on three sides by a dairy cattle farm, and have seven more bulls across the road, so there's loads of flies. We need and appreciate all the spiders...

And when all the flies have been eaten, what then?

If that's a 4x2 (2x4 to us Yanks) that's a moderately large spider...

That's her windowsill? Like... inside her house?

It's no wonder she has such creatures crawling about...

Anyone who cannot handle spiders and snakes should NEVER venture far beyond urban areas in OZ. Even in the urbs, you can find more than you want to see. Australia also has more deadly snakes than crocodiles and it has PLENTY of the latter.

I’ve never understood why so many people are arachnophobic. I think they’re fascinating predators.

A buddy of mine who frequents Australia was told that 13 of the top 10 most poisonous snakes are in OZ.

I still want to go.

I don’t mind spiders , however when they get inside your home I have a very quick trial where I’m judge, jury and executioner.
They may have counsel if they wish.
The verdict is carried out immediately.

Horrifying

A vastly overused adjective

Or is it gerund

Or present participle

English is so weird but precise in definition
