HELP !!!!.... SPIDER !!! HELP !!!!!!

Postby fif111 » Fri Feb 17, 2006 4:54 pm

oh my freak'en god !!!!!
while i was enjoying my ciggie with my driver side window wide open, there was a huge spider, as big as my palm or even bigger, was crawling inside close to my mirror. i wasnt noticed it in the first place, but when notice it i saw it jump close my windows and decided to walk inside. i was shocked and close my window as fast as i could. well . tk god the spider didnt went inside. however, i saw him again as I walk off the car. I was trying to chase him, but he sneak inside the front panel of the driver's side or ... it could be inside my car now. Therefore I was told to spray half a can on Baygon inside the car and leave it for few hours or so .... I did that....
Although my car smell like Baygon now ... but can i get rid of that spider if it's inside ?? oh forgot to mention, i even spray it inside the air con too ...

my question is ... will that get rid of the spider inside the car ?
which products is good to clean the interior completely ?

Call Mrs Benny to come and collect it.
She's really good at catching spiders and gently placing them back in a garden, where they belong.

She was once in an NRMA office, and when she walked in, everyone was screaming at a big huntsman on the wall.
Mrs Benny got a brochure, went up to it, and pushed it onto the brochure and nonchalantly walked out with it, to the cheers of the crowd.

You should see her fighting with our cats when they catch a lizard!

driving to uni in the 5 this morning...then i noticed a spider crawling accross the dash. I think it crawled out of one of the center air vents and last time I saw it, it had crawled under the glovebox latch. It was around 5 or 6cm in length. Any tips on getting rid of it? I hate spiders....

boo :(
