""It’s when the spider answers back that the full police response is warranted.”
Yep!
That’s not a spider ...Here’s your spider!

Police in Western Australia have confirmed they sent multiple officers to an emergency call that turned out to be a screaming man with a “serious fear” of spiders.
A concerned passerby was walking outside a house in suburban Perth when they heard a toddler screaming and a man repeatedly shouting “Why don’t you die?”
After they called triple zero, officers arrived to find a man “trying to kill a spider”, who apologised for having an extreme fear of the arachnid.
“Caller walked past the AA and heard a male screaming out ‘Why don’t you die’ – repeatedly,” the log read. “The toddler inside was screaming … caller doesn’t know them, but has seen them a few times when walking”.
Twenty minutes later, officers on the scene provided an update.
“Police spoke with all parties who advised that husband had only been trying to kill a spider (has serious fear of spiders). Apologised for inconvenience to police.

Does AA stand for Angry Arachnid?

Also, the trees will kill you by dropping branches on your head.
Bogus map is bogus.
Left out Drop Bears.
“Who can blame him when the spiders over there are more dangerous than MS-13?”
At least they’re in their own country.
Note: Everything there - plant or animal or insect is out to kill or maim you. Enjoy your stay.
At that site there’s a video of a Huntsman spider dragging a dead mouse up the refrigerator.......I don’t think I would survive if I saw it in person.
Check out the article, there’s a sub article with a video showing one of those damn spiders dragging a mouse across the refrigerator door......
Whoa!!
A lot easier if one is panicking, just keep banging the '0' until someone picks up.
Yea, that was my reaction too. If I want to get rid of mice, I’ll get another cat......
Lord have mercy! I’m just not used to seeing that kind of thing. But I’ll tell you who is used to it,
Australian actress Nicole Kidman.
There is a video on YouTube July 30, 2018,
Nicole Kidman rescues a GIGANTIC BLACK SPIDER from her pool.
She saw the ‘beast’ crawling into her swimming pool. Did not want it near some children already in the water. So what does Nicole do? She found a large empty glass jar, picked the spider up, put him in there and screwed the lid on.
Simple. Simple for her, knowing what kind of spider she was dealing with. I would have gotten the kids out of the pool and evacuated asap. Who am I fooling?

I’m fairly certain that warrants a shotgun

That movie rivals ‘Open Water’ as having the worst ending EVER.
“...video of a Huntsman spider dragging a dead mouse...”
The discussion at the bottom of that article is well worth the time spent reading!
Excellent!
