It's hard to think about living at an apartment after seeing something as vile as that spider, but apparently they're all over the island and EVERYone has to deal with them. To which I say, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!
I seem to be repeating myself. I guess I was prepared, coming to this tropical island, to deal with snakes and bats and even cockroaches, but giant hideous spiders are an unwelcome surprise. What do you do with one when it gets into your house? How do you kill something so large? Do we need to get a dog? I think it's too large for a cat to handle - maybe a rottweiler or a doberman pinscher would do... something fierce but agile, because with all of those long legs the spiders are reportedly really fassssst...

So, here's the tradeoff:
Spider (it's not a good photo - but trust me, you don't want a good photo - just understand that this thing is bigger than my hand - about six inches across):
View from the apartment:
Spider.... view.... spider.... view... you have to put up with the spider to get the incredible view.
What to do?

Well... you're going to see these suckers regardless right? might as well have a good view.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can get one of the "trained detector dogs" they use at the airport for snakes, it might get spiders too... Or at least you could find out what kind they use and buy the same kind?
