The bush Huntsman is a lot darker with a larger body.
Here is one I spotted recently outside the house.

Must have been tired, the nice wasp is helping it up the wall :)

For those who might not know, the "kind wasp" has paralysed the spider, then drags it back to a hole already prepared, drags in the spider, lays its eggs, which hatch and feed on the still live spider.................Amazing how the wasp can drag such a large load. :shock: :shock:

Thanks for the advice about the bed snakes......I think.....Just wondering if a snake could work out the doggie door for the lure of an electric blanket?

BTW- I'm not anti-snake. Even cuddled one in Darwin on the weekend but I just prefer them at a distance when I'm at home .....

That's either a very large wasp or the world's smallest huntsman spider. :shock:

Heat seeking capabilities are mostly confined to the pythons, vipers and rattlesnakes. We don't have vipers and rattlesnakes in Australia, so you are only likely to end up with a python as a bed snake. Not venomous and usually not aggressive to humans.

That's a python in your picture. Looks like Antaresia childreni, Children's Python. Named after scientist John Children, nothing to do with being particularly suitable for children.

The original spider may be a Coastal Golden Orb Weaver.

And everyone should learn to love their Huntman's. They do no harm, but feast on other spider nasties. :D


Hmmm, note to Admin, this and the last post did not come up on the "View New Posts" list. Glitch?
