di ako takot sa gagamba pinag kaka perahan ko pa yan noong elem ako binebenta namin sa mga rich kids na hindi marunong manghuli ng gagamba, 50 pesos isang posporo hehehe yung bahay ng posporo lalagyan mo ng dahin ng coconut then pag kakasyahin mga 10 gagamba. depende sa klase.. may gagambang hapon ay yung magaling na laging panalo sa pustahan yung gagambang kulay pula.. Sa gabi kami kung manghuli nyan iilawan mo lang sa damuhan ok na..

Pang training namin yung gagambang bahay na super duwag segundo lang nasaputan na agad ng gagambang botjog hehehe those were the days...

Fovorite ko pag tripan yung gagambang Exis na sobrang laki pero di naman pwedeng pang laban.. kukunin ko lang ang sapot, babatakin mo sa may pwet ang sapot hagang sa maubos.

ang di ko pa nahawakan gagamba yung tarantula... Camel spider pinag ti tripan ko sa disyerto dati sa loob ng planta hinahabol ko ng bike sobrang bilis. hirap sagasaan

We see a lot of tarantulas in our back yard. But, we leave them alone because they eat bugs and other pests. They also tend to run away if we're near.

The neighborhood kids would often beg us to let them catch the spiders because they like to keep them as pets.

These are older photos using my Nikon Coolpix 995.

Ang hinahanap namin noon yung gagambang poste na kulay black, gagambang talahib at yung sa kaimito dahil matatapang yun. Para daw mas tumapang ang gagamba sinusunog namin ang itlog then ipapalit amoy sa kanila. Malakas pustahan dyan dati.

Ito naman, tawag nito sa amin eh gagambang tungko.

RE: Pic of TS
Kahit ako takot dyan. Naalala ko dati doon sa dating tinitirahan ng mga pinsan ko, may ganyan sa cr nila. Di ako maka-jebs o wiwi man lang dahil nakakatakot ang laki niya. Pero ngayon, wala. Walis tambo lang katapat niyan. Minsan hinahayaan ko nalang sila kasi friendly naman mga yan.

Kung sa gagambang panlaban din lang, dito sa amin ang sikat ay yung bulik na makikita sa mga palayan. Dati nung bata ako eh madalas akong sumama sa mga kaibigan ko na maghanap ng gagamba sa mga damuhan at palayan pag walang pasok. Elementary days, sobrang uso ng mga yan at binibili ng mga schoolmates ko pag may nagbebenta.

You mean if I live in Arizona? Yup.

I've seen a lot of different spiders in the PH:

One that looked like a black and yellow crab, garden spiders that looked like an X on its web, hand-sized spiders with golden webs on mango trees, the regular house spiders and others that can be found on banana and mangrove plants, the big hunting spiders I sometimes see hanging out in older bathrooms.

My favorite are the jumping spiders. They seem intelligent compared to all the others types. Plus, they don't bite when handled.

awesome yard you've got there in arizona sir!

it's exactly what every arachno bloke dreams of.

we also have a handful of local tarantulas here which belong to

the old world species.

but you can never find some of them here in the city (except for
some petshops that cater to exotic hobbyists).

the only spiders you'll see are the common huntsman

spiders (like the ts' attached pic) and those spiders you've mentioned.

here in Luzon we have dwarf brown tarantulas (phlogiellus

baeri),

which should be common

but were driven to rarity by

pests called.......

people (homo f*ckin sapiens).
