Well i'm sitting at my comp this morning when this cheery felow decides to walk across my foot. Not nearly as big as the saffa ones but one the biggest i've seen in nz so far.

This one crawled onto my pants from the garage for a trip into the house and was probably planning to chew one of my fingers off during the night. According to the map every 10 millimetres represents 100 metres in real life.

Weve found 2 of those one in the top pic here, on that ruler it they would be hitting the 9cm mark, some freaky shit. Especially when it fell out of the container. :gob:

Darren you baby, that thing is tiny. :nya:

The first one is an Avondale Spider - harmless but f*cking big and scary looking! No an issue.

this (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=31574&highlight=centipede) thing f*cking scares me!

Our neighbours daughter (about 4 I think) just loves bugs and creepy crawlies. We started trying to teach her how to say "Entomologist" she came out with Emptymololog....

I read somewhere that we eat/ingest quite a few "bugs" in our sleep during our lifetime...

Saves getting up for a midnight snack I suppose...

I think you'll find the first one is a Sheetweb spider. Aren't Avondales big grey hairy things?

Those are still harmless though. It's funny how people have a fear of spiders when all they want to do when they encounter us generally is run away and hide...

I know..its strange to be scared of something sooo much smaller than us. I think they're cool :)

hmm nice i would have like to get a can of hair spray and a lighter and torch that centipede, i used to do that with the wasp nest back at home till i got stung and that really pissed me off, so i torched the bastards till they were all gone. i can handle spiders and other insects but flys are the ones that get to me ewwwwwwwwwww i cant stand them they are soooo yuck
