Glad to see you doing your bit to persuade everyone that our country ISN'T crawling with spiders - AHEM?
THAT'S ONLY IN THE TROPICS! Melbourne is very nice and boring in the spider department.
I think redbacks are the only real nasties here, aren't they? And I've only seen about 1 in my whole life. Do Huntsmen bite? I thought they were just alarmingly huge.
At least OUR Daddy-Long-Legs just walk around. In England they FLY. HUGE horrible thingys. EUGH!
As for the ENORMOUS leopard slugs they have - let's just say that I'd still be checking my boots...
