Seriously though..this sucker is HUGE! IF, and only IF, I would have held it in my hand..it would have barely fit. I thought it was going to jump on my camera when I was shooting it..lol...It is on the front porch, in front of the door...which means I had to walk past it 3 times. Once to come inside to grab the camera...another time to walk BACK outside to take the picture..then again...to upload the pic. This spider is NOT trying to leave.

I like Kris's suggestion, sounds like a plan, just don't burn your house down in the process! :shocking:

:lmao: I don't think I've ever actually set one on fire... but I have frozen many of them to the wall until such time as I could grab a shoe and beat the hell out of it by using hairspray. It stuns them and they can't move so well, but if you're not quick enough with the shoe (or other blunt beating type instrument) they can run away.

I use to spray them with hairspray then light them up! I thought that's what you meant. When I wanted it dead I wanted it DEAD!! :lol:
