Thanks for the replies, mouse spider and brown recluse both look like good candidates but she was bigger than a 2 pence piece, probably nearer 5cm than that, doesn’t look quite as dark as the brown recluse, perhaps a brown recluse mated with a mouse spider? :eek: :lolol:

Rest assured to the ‘kill it fire’ party, I don’t kill spiders, or set them on fire.

Either a female Sac spider or a Fox spider.

Highly unlikely to be a mouse spider, but if it is, get rid of it as they're extremely aggressive and harmful to humans.

I even have to pluck up the courage to remove Daddy long leg spiders. Not sure how i would cope would seeing this one near my bed :eek:
I am not a murderer though, and realise spiders are vital for keeping other pests under control.

This thread does nothing for the board's credibility.

You're all a load of southern softies.

When I worked as an aircraft engineer we used to get "things" in the holds, empty someone's lunch box scoop them up and hot foot it off to Gatwick Zoo. We found a nest of scorpions, spiders the size of your hand even a foot long bright red snake.

Fair to say that if you set it on fire or kill it.....it will only make it angrier.

Is that a new sandwich offering from Subway?
