yea um thanks.
it was probably some prat who saw a little spider or something. surely it would be cheaper to look for it with a torch rather than FUMIGATING A WHOLE AIRBUS!!!

I think the "they are Brits" comment was aimed at my joke about the double-entendre possibilities of someone saying he was looking for a secure place to hide his leopard gecko.

I found the bit about growing up to one foot long quite amusing.... If anyone has a one foot long tarantula, please post pics!

Theraposa blondi (Goliath Bird Eater) is known to reach lengths of a foot - runa search and I'm sure you'll find pix and/or video of an adult.

there is a slightly larger species of theraposa that also gets so a foot. not a very common one though.
at least they didn't say poisonous....
