Ay as long as the spider isn’t on your bed, consider it out of sight out of mind. A spider in your room will keep out bugs/insects, and they’ll give you your space. They don’t tend to have good eyesight so they might get close to you sometimes on accident, but once they realize they’ll most likely turn and run away. Spider friends are nice :)
@@theyumblat5420 It's the opposite for me. If I see a spider and lose it. It always comes for me at night time... Every time I lose it, same day I feel it crawling on my arm when sleeping. They ain't tiny either... 😭
I don't swear I do however appreciate living vicariously through others!! Thank you for that. On certain specific and special circumstances not only is it called for but it actually suits! 😂😂😂
As an arachnophobe, the Huntsman was one of the first kinds of spider I became okay with, because apparently despite being known to be so fast they "teleport", they're apparently incredibly chill, or at least so timid they will flee before becoming aggressive.
I mean most spiders kinda flee before they become aggressive, especially when they don't have venom. spiders are creepy don't like em at all, I would never have them as a pet. But knowing that huntsmen and camel spiders exist I feel prepared to live around them. The most daunting part about this is why does Australia have such a strange and deadly biome I mean every time I think of the platypus and what it represents I get a headache. A duck billed, web footed, semi aquatic mammal, that not only lays eggs, and produces milk, but is also venomous? It doesn't make any damn sense. It wouldn't be as bad if there were other presidents for two or more of those traits, but there are none. The platypus is seemingly an avian, mammal, reptile, that's cuter than God's tits and I can't deal with it being a real creature from this planet.
@@lionheartfilms793 oh huntsmen spiders have venom It won't do anything in our biology though It will absolutely fuck up the spiders that it hunts though
I am also an arachnophobe and i was able to live with a huntsman in my toilet (just in the room, not the actual toilet) for like a month. She was chill. And then she was gone and we had tiny little huntsmans all over the house 🥴
@@MarcyblightUniverse0421 the way they shed it pretty fucking weird, unlike other tarantula They adhere a foot to the wall and use gravity to just ✨ slide out ✨ So currently there are many huntsmen sheds all over the place
@@RailfoxStudios also If you live in high tree areas (like the blue mountains) its encouraged to not use cleaning products with eucalyptus Cause it makes them real aggressive Otherwise super cuddly and gentle
I just love the lil nope dance, the lil “get away from me bugs” jig that he does! 😂 it gets me every time. 100% correct though, that spider is BIGGER THEN A HAMSTER!!!! BURN IT WITH FIRE GET IT THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME! 😂
If I'm not mistaken that was a variety of huntsman spider. Generally non-aggressive to humans but I'm with Jordan regarding the sentiment of it can have the house.
@@ShaggyZoinkswould it be like a dog wearing shoes? Lifting its feet way too high up because it's confused? Looking at the shoes like "I can't find my feet. What is this sorcery? Dark magic!".
@@quetzalcoatlustheflyinggir5111 as much as i hate anything with too much feet. That would be cute and funny to see. Now i am imagining them playing basketball as well for some reason...
As an Aussie, I’m pretty sure that’s a huntsman spider, they are *not* dangerous and don’t jump unless they feel threatened or cornered. They sometimes come into Australian homes bc of warm weather or when it rains. They are usually on walls / ceilings and I had one in my classroom once 😂, if that’s not a huntsman, I don’t know😅
U sort of characterize it as an animal at this point. I know it sounds weird but pests don’t feel like animals, and there’s an element here where it’s a totally self sufficient creature that has absolutely no reason to interact with a human, it’s the false idea that it’s competing for living space that I think is disturbing people and making them feel threatened. It definitely is self sufficient and it’s too different from mammals to clash we are on sort of different wavelengths
@@lukefisch9483it's not a pest though It hunts pests including other spiders Don't know about you but I'd prefer a single spider I know about than 30 I don't Also worst it can do if give you a fright and mild pain from a bite (their venom is useless on humans), dogs can cause more damage than they can
@@theirishviking9278 That huntsman has a name. He is Peter J Tomson, and he is my tenant. He pays rent by hunting down mozzies and other spiders. He also teaches Jack how to hunt, who is a very small jumping spider that sits there looking pretty more than it hunts.
@@codydillon2144 don't worry. i'm australian too, they're just messing with ya XD. The smallest spider i've see was probably smaller than a grain of rice. the biggest i've seen was a bit smaller than a 3x3x3 rubix cube, but this video ain't fake.
@donthugmeImscared so I used to live in an area where they like to hangout and one day I went out into my backyard, as soon as I come of the door, a huntsman drops onto my head. I didn't think much of it at first so I just patted my head and rhats when I knew there was a spooky spider on me. So my instinct was to immediately shake it off my head. Terrifying.
Can I point out that by the way as a certified Australian I can confirm that these are the harmless ones you see them in your house all the time. They're called "Huntsmans"
@@Izzy_the_moderator Huntsmans are what keep pests like roaches, and other spiders away, the only death they cause are car crashes from people spotting one while driving
Bro what the fuck do you mean harmless. This shit is gonna give me the same nightmares that I had when I was 8 and watched the Harry Potter movie with spiders. That is mental trauma that is greater than when my father moved to California. I am more terrified then when I fell down a mountain and nobody was around to help. You have lost your godamn mind if you think that because something can’t kill you it is harmless.
I'm Australian, Huntsman spiders are basically wild pets A non venomous spider that prays on things that you'd actually want to avoid, let them do their own thing...catch and release if you really want it gone Frankly huntsman spiders should probably be introduced to America... might deal with new York's rat issues 🤣 Pretty much our big spiders are harmless, it's the little ones you gotta be scared of... and huntsmen eat the little ones
@@moltres42 NO NO NO YOU ARE. NOT BRINGING THOSE THINGS HERE I DON'T CARE IF THOSE SPIDER CATS CAN SOLVE WORLD PEACE OR SOMETHING I DON'T WANT IT HERE NO
These guys are actually pretty friendly. They just sit in a corner and mind their own business but also take care of any bugs/insects or other spiders that are actually dangerous
I’m Australian, that spider is called the huntsman and they are literally harmless, we give them goofy names, one that lived in our house was called Henry.
That’s a huntsman, there quite common over here, they arnt poisonous and arnt aggressive, their juts creepy to look at. They are often found in peoples houses, sheds and other out door structures to protect themselves from the elements. They are kinda good to have cause they kill the poisonous spiders you’ll find in your house:)
@@GHOST25938 Dude it's a nope from me for a REGULAR spider. If I walk in and see THAT? l'm giving him the keys to my house and apologizing. "Forgive ME sir, I did not mean to intrude."
@@neocreativesoul spiders have fur, paw's, they bite, they scratch, they are basically eight legged cat's. So yeah burn the House down After leaving and After that all other areas Until you reach the ocean
Btw this isn’t a joke I have a spider on my bathroom window to eat the mozzys (mosquitos) and other smaller spiders.😭😭😭 there’s a spider that comes out on its 3 head large web with the spider being around a toddlers hand size lol. (It’s a orb spider, search it up.. or don’t idc)
Aussie here, these spiders are actually really cool because they hunt other spiders in the area, hence their name "Huntsman" spiders. They also chase laser pointers if you shine one near it.
I dont get the fear of spiders. I handle them all the time. Never been bit once. If its venomous i would just geta container and move it outside. Spiders are amazing creatures
Petition to just call australia jurassic park at this point Edit:Wow 1k likes yall are too kind Ps met this guy irl amazing friendly guy Edit: 2k likes! Im playing the lottery tonight
We have Hunstmen spiders in Florida, too..... My mom was most unfortunate to encounter one in the middle of the night coming out from under the AC wall unit when she was younger and living with her parents... She tells the story to this day. She said it was as big as a toddler just crawling on the floor. But as soon as you made noise or turned on a light, he'd go right back up in that wall unit and disappear. Her family never believed her, never saw anything when they looked, night after night she watched this thing... Until she finally convinced them to stay up and just wait with her and booooyyyyyy was that all they needed. Moved the next day, I think.
As an Australian I guarantee that those huge spiders are basically anxiety on legs... The larger they are the shyer, and while it may be giving you a heart attack, it's going through 3 mental breakdowns just seeing you...
Very rarely will a spider bite you, I hid next to three red back during hide and seek. They are venomous and they do bite but they won’t bite unless you touch them. I miss them, they were part of my childhood and they probably died when I left primary school.
If it bites you and it’s poisonous you’re fine you mean venomous Poison: u bite/lick/ingest in any way = u die (maybe) Venom: it bites and/or stings u = u die (maybe)
Aussie here! huntsmen are actually really friendly! They do chase laser pointers and they only bite if you get to close, and they chase away other spiders! Better a gigantic, terrifying, yet friendly spider than a small harmful spider that will give you something to be afraid of.
The fact some idiot one day was just like sitting there with a laser pointer with their cat and that shits like hey dont forget about me! NO THANK YOU AUSTRIANS ARE NUTS
@@samdouglas9759 while other people might say the black widow, you are right as a brown recluse never uses a warning bite while 9/10 times a black widow will.
Listen, I don’t have arachnophobia, I’m usually cool with spiders, even tarantulas I’ll stay back from but observe from a few feet away thinking “huh that’s kind of cool” But then that spider moved and filled me with the insatiable urge to commit arson It looks big enough to threaten me with a knife
Like I don't mind spiders. Just find the webs annoying. But that....thing is just...JESUS! If I can't step on it with my size 13s. Bro you need a perfect head stomp otherwise that's yo ass
Always has, I'm Australian that's the thing about huntsman spiders...they are predators towards the kind of pests you'd actually want gone Once you become a fully fledged Australian you are more like "hello friend, you go do your job... I'll just be over here" Huntsman spiders are basically wild pets (I spelled that correctly, WILD PETS)
Looking at the spider I got a sensation on the bottom of my neck I screamed It's 4 am I screamed on the top of my lungs Hearing spider foot steps?haha That's attack on Titan stuff I'll put the gun in my mouth
Lmaooooo I’m trying to imagine this guy having to survive in a post apocalyptic wasteland…just like *cha cha dance* Nope. Nope. No. *No.* That zombie’s eye just popped out of its head like…come here…*pulls you in closer* I wasn’t built for this, I want to go home.
they dont make sounds like that, they dont make a sound at all, you just suddenly notice one on the wall and then wonder how long that guy has been there...its worse when you've seen one and then its gone later
I will always stand by myself when I say if spiders could talk, I wouldn't be as afraid of them. They get rid of pests and such, but they're so scary bc of the multiple legs and not knowing what their next move is 😭 all I need is for lil Charlotte and her web to say "Hey, I'm trying to find that centipede that ran away, sorry for intruding" and we'd be on good terms 😭
This! I like spiders that keep to one spot 😂 I also find it helpful to imagine they have to do the Mission Impossible theme song to psych themselves up while they're running around or hanging from a web. Works best for harmless little ones that get nervous idk about Australia though xD
Yeah as someone who has arachnophobia I am terrified of spiders for so many reasons but one of the main ones is the fact that u never know their next move
