I really want to move to Australia cause I have an opportunity to work there, but there is one thing that really bothers me. I have hardcore arachnophobia and I can easily pass out or panic like a little girl if I see one of these fuckers around. Too bad Australia is stereotypically known as a motherland of all humongous spiders and I'm thinking if they're so common there and how do you survive an encounter with such a beast.
Spiders are cool, though.
get over it you fucking cuck

You'll live in some shithole city and you'll basically never see spiders. If by chance you do, they'll be tiny and less intimidating than you expect.
If you move out to a country area you will eventually just get over your fear of them because there are so many it is unreasonable to try and avoid them.
The vast majority of them are relatively harmless too.

They are the best spiders though. Keep to themselves, hunt flies and cockroaches.
Also redbacks and whitetails are easy to deal with.

I have to say lads, this Australian wildlife meme is honestly a godsend. Yuropoors can't keep the dindus away with bears and wolves anymore because they murdered all of them.
if you're coming here for work you'll most likely be in a residential area/city and won't see any spiders at all you fucking sook holy shit grow a fucking pair of balls I thought polish were supposed to be tough cunts but evidently you're a fucking fairy faggot assed poof

Spiders are terrifying man. You don't realize it because you've been around them for so long.

>live in a country with genuinely venomous spiders who can fuck you up and how
LOL spiders are bros m8
>live in a country where venomous spiders are basically a fairy tale told by flat earth crusaders
Found a Daddy Long Legs in my bath and shat myself
I have it pretty bad too. I think it's because my fucktarded parents let me watch a bunch of horror movies about giants spiders when I was a kid and they scarred me.
I'm fine killing smaller spiders, but anything bigger than a penny will make me shit my pants
Huntsmen don't bite, they're timid. I don't like having them in the house because I'm a bit phobic, but they're not actually dangerous.
If you live near Sydney you may encounter funnel webs, which are one of the most venomous spiders in the world.

White tails aren't actually dangerous, it's a myth. Worst they'll give you is some nausea.
People think they cause necrosis of the tissue because of infections people have gotten from their bites. Most insect and spider bites can potentially become infected.

I thought it was a parasite that does that. Anyway I'm on to you spider.

Tb h Australia would be great place to bigass international prison.

Few spiders cause necrosis, but even the ones that do aren't deadly. Necrosis is due to an infection in the bite area, and it's literally just an infection. It can be treated with simple antibiotics.
I'm no fan of spiders but people overblow how dangerous they are. We're actually afraid of them because we attribute traits of venomous spiders to non-venomous or non-biting spiders, and also because they just look so alien.
