In a basement suite I was in Vancouver I used to live in, I found a couple of spiders aorund 3-4 inches in diameter. They were tough #######s. I couldn't kill them with a broom, only pin them temporarily. It took 5 or 6 good wacks with the broom pan to finish them off. Thankfully, I've only ran across them a few times during my time in Vancouver. |
3-4 inches in
diameter?! Were they tarantulas?! Christ. Hitting them with a dust pan must have made one hell of a mess.
