Hey, that's a fine looking spider, he'll keep some of the unwanted at bay.

Cheers Leon

Looks like a huntsman or relative, a good spider to have if that's the case, they don't build webs and they eat the smaller ones that do. Meet Erik.. Erichnid that is, he hangs out only a couple of feet away from our bed. Since he moved in the white tails and other assorted nasty little biters have disappeared.

Nice Shawn, looks like it has had a fight or two in its time.

Phil, Eric looks very much at home there, have you tried patting it on the back yet
