  1. As I recall, you Aussies have some of the most poisonous spiders and snakes on the planet. Please keep them down there! 

    Yeeeeeeah, we do. I guess growing up with it you don't think about it. Amazingly the biggest killer of tourists in Australia is the one thing they come here for....our beaches. We have savage rips and swells (not to mention the Noah's (sharks)) and people just are not use to it. Even with swimming between the flags it's easy to be pulled "outside" the into the danger zone and by then they are to knackered to do anything about it.

  2. You should have seen the jungles in Vietnam :shock:  everything either crawled, slithered or flew and the ones that flew were filing flight plans, soooo many bugs and they all wanted a piece of you...
     

    Looking forward to going there one day!

  3. Are they poisonous?

    No, they are not really poisonous but they do bite. And what little venom they have will hurt but the most you will get is some inflammation. A red back could be right next to me and it wouldn't bother me. They are poisonous and have killed people but Huntsman's just give me the creeps!

    I remember when I was 16 and I had to help my boss move house. He had a bunch of old furniture under his house that looked like it hadn't seen the light of day for 50 years. We were carrying this big old table and, as if on cue mind you, dozens of huntsman's were basically following us....running and jumping!! I didn't want to know what was under that bloody table!!

  4. My boss at work put this under my chair in the lunch room as a prank.

    406ddef4d9a4778479d923c80f4b4f6f.png a harmless carpet python, snakes don't bother me. I put it up in the back table and when dave (the Irish man) came in I told him I found one of his tools out on the job "it's right over there in that bucket" well he tipped the bucket over towards him to look inside and the scream was one of the funniest things I have ever heard!! Lmao.

    So I put him in my truck so I could take him out in the bush to let him go, well I got busy and I forgot and an hour later I look over

    So I went around to the passenger side to let him out and he went into the dash, so then I had to pull the whole dash apart just to get him out!!

    He is safe now back in the bush.

  5. So I have to ask. Do they just open the door themselves and walk right in? or do they find a small 6 inch crack somewhere and squeeze through?

    Hahaha, the doors are pretty much always open in Australia, where you're home anyway. Too hot! But even if everything was closed this monster would take the door off its hinges.
