  1. Itโ€™s ok heโ€™s a Jaguar driver. ย Heโ€™s probably already living with a bit of depression and a fuck you attitude.

    The huntsman will be chicken feed for him.

  2. The spider’s name is Bruce, but he’ll do just fine in the wheelwell, don’t worry about him.

    Huntsman, right? Will keep the bugs off the car, but give you a spook when opening the boot ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Looks like your local friendly huntsman that always likes to live inside your car. ๐Ÿ˜† When i use to live on a rural property it was common to get these big ol spiders hiding in the car. I would always check my sunscreen visor before driving as i didnt need a fright on the highway ๐Ÿ˜‚

  5. I had one for months on my car. When parked no sign of the big bugger. Drive a few minutes and there he was running around the car windows as if he was on a roller coaster. Tried multiple times to stop and just knock him gently off the car, no where to be seen. Start driving again and bingo the race around the car windows began again. Night or day he would appear so always had to keep my windows closed. After months of his antics he suddenly had gone. I actually missed him.

  6. I used to share my car with my sister that used to have to drive to the country and managed to pick up a huntsman that lived in the driver’s side mirror. You’d see a leg sticking out once in a while but it usually was pretty chill I let it be.

    One night we were coming home from a party and my sun visor was still down from the afternoon so I flipped it back up and there was the spider on the windscreen. Thinking it was outside of the car I turn on the wipers to knock it away but they just passed through it without it even flinching.

    Ended up opening the window to shoo it out and proceeded to speed home in hopes that it would fly off and terrorise someone else. But when we got home we saw it still clinging on gamely to the roof of the car, then scuttling back to the mirror.

    A few days later I get in the car to go to uni, was a hot day so turned the car on and cracked the air con and lo and behold a bajillion baby spiders come pouring out of the vents like scene from Arachnophobia come real.

    I noped out for uni that day, got some insect spray and doused the car and cleaned it up the following day.

    Next time I got the car serviced the mechanic was like, “hey did you know that you had a huntsmans nest in your air con”

    At least itโ€™s not in his towel. I just got bit by one when I was drying myself and I offended it with the audacity to use the towel it was hiding in.

    My wife had one try to get in her window while driving, trying to belt it she threw her bag out the window

    Lifeโ€™s in danger from a mildly venomous arachnid/spider ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚, his life is in a million times more danger just being behind the wheel of the car on a road oh and especially in Sydney of all places (terrible drivers everywhere).

    Had this happen to me once. Got in my car Wednesday night and as I closed the drivers door a shadow didnโ€™t move as expected. As I drove off a hunty scurried across the windscreen. All good I thought, heโ€™s on the outside and gone.

    Thursday night I open the tailgate and there he is wedged between the door and bumper.

    Friday night Iโ€™m driving down a busy four lane road and go to change lanes. I look up in the rear view mirrorโ€ฆ and can only see out half of it.
