The giant grass spider in my sink that surprised me and the massive amounts of insecticide I used lest it escape to run freely anywhere to surprise me again. I usually put them in a bottle and take them outside if they are not huge and fast.
My kitchen sink is like a spider trap. For some reason spiders fall into it and cannot climb out of it. I've caught many spiders there. Was your giant one able to climb out of the sink?
I had a giant huntsman spider on the living room wall about a month ago and was happily cohabiting with it but unfortunately after two weeks of living with it, I found it dead near the window. I think it was too cold for it.
He was so big, I felt he could probably climb out but maybe I was just freaking out. I have cohabited with small spiders that were on the slow/inactive side. The grass spiders are just so big and fast. They are interesting and if I could guarantee they would not touch me, I'd let them be. Sorry to hear of the demise of your huntsman. Any chance he shed his exoskeleton and is still alive?
