Unless they are spiders, that is. "There was a bit of a problem when a
large banded huntsman spider I'd introduced to the garden took up
residence in a drawer," admits Robinson. "When Lynne went to take out
her favourite grey jumper, part of it moved under her hand," he recalls.
Her piercing scream persuaded him to put the spider at the farthest part
of the garden. "It never returned," he says, "probably because its sound
receptors are still ringing."

I've heard that the Huntsman is the number 1 killer spider in Australia.
It's actually harmless, but looks horrible. And it likes to live in
cars. So there you are half way down the Pacific Highway when this
horrible looking thing crawls out... and your attention is distracted
from driving...
