Hi /an/

So just as I opened the bathroom door to take a piss this huge spider goes scurrying away on the bathroom floor, but fails to escape ( lol tiles ), so I ran to get my insect spray and nuked the fucker to oblivion. Now I ask, if anyone can identify this spider for me? And if it's in any way dangerous.

Pic related, after it got squashed anyway.

One time my sister found a big nasty looking spider in the bathroom, well the only nasty thing was that it had a really big backbody....

Anyway I slayed it with chlorine <3

OP here.

Well I compared the pics on that website and yes, it does seem like a huntsman spider. Must have crawled in from the bathroom window. Thanks /an/ .

Too bad I couldn't flip it over to deal massive damage though.

I would probably kill myself.

What do you think spraying one of those huge fuckers with hairspray would do?

I'd eat it. The bigger ones usually are a little bit more mild than their smaller, bitter counter-parts.

I'm not entirely sure, but hairspray combined with a lighter will certainly be more effective.

Killing a spider brings you unluck!

What is wrong with all you people killing huntsmans, they are totally harmless. They will only show up if your house is infested with insects. Leave them be to eat all your cockroaches.

just out of interest, which country is OP from?

oh and im not completely sure what hairspray does to a spider but it could be due to suffocation...insects dont breathe through their mouths, they have holes throughout their exoskeleton called "spiracles" and this connects to a respiratory system/circulatory system within the insect...hairspray/deodrant could basically choke them to death......or maybe the chemicals r poisonous to it?

i heard dishwashing fluid is highly toxic to them..anybody hear similar stories?

If we were in Menzobarrenzan you'd be dead. You hear me?! DEAD. The penalty for killing spiders in the city of the drow, the homeland of the spider queen, is nothing less than death...

Unless you have scimitars and a cat with an unpronounceable name. Seriously Salvatore, couldn't name it Kitty or something?

Yeah, it's probably a Huntsman. However, judging by the size, coloration, and body shape, It could also just be a species of wolf spider. They're a hunting spider and don't build webs, so they have a tendency to explore (open windows and doors and such). From my experience, they're pretty docile, harmless things. My 7th grade science teacher had several of them in fish bowls, and I played with them all the time and nothing happened. To be safe, though, if you see one again, just scoop it up on a book or something and toss it outside. No point in killing them, though. They're nice to have around. Eat a lot of the creepier bugs, y'know?

talking from experiance. spiders dont like tabasco. (yea... im an evil fuck arnt I)
anyways... its kinda interesting when you finde one of those masive fuck huntsmen, and you gotta ask yourself: "for this fucker to grow this big, how long would it have to have lived in my house?"
