      The biggest spiders are fine. We allow them in our houses. It’s the little spiders that Australians worry about

      The only person I have ever seen in hospital for spider bites was bitten by several redbacks (pretty similar to black widows)

      I have never heard of anyone hospitalised by a huntsman spider

    My understanding is that the biggest threat is when one of those sneaking into your car and start crawling on people while driving. I think we can both agree, people make for terrible drivers when achiant spider is crawling on them
