LOL @ Brazilian wandering spider
Good plan - chances are you're going to lose a bit of hair around the bite site depending on how it goes. Hopefully it's mild. Keep us posted.
Here along the coast we now have tropical house geckos (global warming?) and hardly any spiders around the house anymore.

I didn't want to start a new thread. Does anyone know what type of spider this is?
 
Thats not a spider as it has 10 legs.
I think its called a red roman.

That's a solifuge. It's an arachnid but not a spider. Very powerful jaws and will nip you eina but no venom. They're incredibly sensitive things and don't last in captivity. They're also called 'red romans', 'camel spiders' or 'sun spiders'. Very very fast moving critters!

I don't know what spiders they are but they should be dead spiders.

I recently moved to Edenvale from Boksburg and there are a lot more spiders in Edenvale. I kill at least one spider a night.

Good luck!
 
Man burns down house while trying to kill spider with lighter and spray paint

SEATTLE -- Fire officials say a West Seattle man was using a lighter and a can of spray paint to kill a spider in his laundry room when the house went up in flames.

Fire crews were called to a home in the 10200 block of 34th Avenue SW just before 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Firefighters originally battled the blaze from a distance after learning there may be ammunition inside. Crews were eventually able to extinguish the fire, but not before it did significant damage to the structure.

A man who lived at the home told fire officials he was trying to kill a spider in his laundry room using a can of spray paint and a lighter when the wall caught fire, according to Kyle Moore with the Seattle Fire Department. The man wasn't able to put the fire out himself, and he left the home when it began to spread.

The building, which is a rental home, will cost roughly $40,000 to repair, Moore said. It will cost another $20,000 to repair or replace the contents of the home.

It's unclear if the spider survived.

The Red Cross is finding temporary housing for the man and a woman who lived with him.

Probably one of these catch and release guys were living in your house before you moved in. So the spiders get comfortable and colonise your crib.
