What sort of insect is this?

[Chojin]

Kill it with fire

Big bunch of wusses on this forum lol, it's an insect, man up. I remember I made one of my mates cry at work, I chased him round the warehouse with a spider I found in a banana box, you've never seen a bloke move so fast in your life

To be fair I wouldn't like being chased around by a tropical spider!

Nuke from orbit, kill with fire, smash its pasty.

Oh, or if you're feeling alpha, have it sting you in the eye and proclaim that you feel a mild tingling sensation.

[ReeVo.uK]

Going by QI here, but apparently we have more tornados than the States. Weird.

Did it look like this:

I saw one of those in Thailand they make BIG webs, like 2m wide, and the spider was easily as big as my hand. The body was much more yellow than one though.

we do but not as big, we have about F1 - F2 scale tornadoes, and get them quite regulary, specially in thunderstorms.

Seriously if that was in your bathroom/wherever what would you do? I think I would have to kill it. But what would be the best way to kill it and all the little ones? I'm thinking I would use fire or some kind of spray to kill it. The old hit with a shoe would just end up getting the smaller ones running all over the place.

Nasty looking thing

Sry to quote piccy.

Deffo a cricket! I've got a pet armoured ground cricket called Splat... he moves pretty slowly and squirts blood at you when he feels under any kind of threat .

Proper interesting creatures ;D.
