Uploader comment: A big Huntsman spider that came out from under the table one evening causing panic! It sat there for a bit then crawled back under. We did'nt use that table again.

Are those poisonous?

No, not particularly aggressive spiders. We have one that's lived on our porch banister for a year now. He just pops out on warm nights then runs away when anyone comes too close.

Nice shot - I love these guys, except when they surprise me.. Their venom is not very potent, and they are not aggressive unless defending their egg case. They don't make webs and eat nastier pests like cockroaches - the perfect spider to have indoors if you don't get freaked out by their size..

I seen one of those on my back porch one night coming home i had my flashlight and caught a glimpse of what at first i thought was a rubber toy spider and when i reached down about to pick it up it jumped up and then ran under the wooden plank i had as steps at the time and i jumped back and scream so loud i probably woke the dead up! Haha!

I'm definitely not a fan of spiders, but thanks for sharing...

I'm ok with spiders as long as they are not that big. And close to me. *coughcough*
