This 'Spider Mouse' Is Freaking Out The Entire Internet

If you're not a fan of massive spiders, then probably give this article a miss.

The internet is freaking out about the moment they watched a huntsman drag a mouse up the side of a fridge, originally filmed by some Aussie blokes back in October.

The footage was uploaded to the Aussie Off Roaders Facebook page with the caption: "Huntsman eating a mouse...probably a good time to burn the house...because Australia."

I have to agree. If I discovered that not only did my place have mice but that it also had massive spiders that are big enough to carry the mice away, I would 100 percent be torching the joint.

The 19-second clip shows the huge arachnid carrying what looks like a dead mouse. It was presumably lunchtime.

A Huntsman can, and does, bite, but they usually leave humans alone. In fact, a lot of Aussies actually like them, because they deal with pests like cockroaches and flies. Or, in this case, mice.

In the clip the most Australian man I've ever heard says: "What's he gonna do with him?" His pal replies: "Man, that is so cool." Actually, if you ask me, it's terrifying.

The spiders over in Australia aren't fucking about - they're big enough to use cash machines. Look at what this poor Aussie fella had to put up with... and look how calmly he handled it:

I suppose they're used to them, aren't they? It's the trade-off for living in such a beautiful country, but one Aussie pest controller ended up getting quite the shock when he responded to a call and saw just how big the spider was.

He was called in to 'rescue' a family from the biggest spider that he, an experienced pest controller, had ever seen. And, yeah, it was fucking huge.

Gavin Shill, owner of All Year Pest Solutions, got a call from a woman living Brisbane, Australia last week. She sounded a little frantic as she told him the eight-legged nightmare was big. Properly big.

So, he made his way to the property, probably thinking to himself, 'Pfft... I've worked in pest control for 17 years, I'll be the judge of what's a massive spider, thank you very much.'

Upon arriving Gavin couldn't believe what he was seeing. I mean, look at it:

What's that? You want a closer look? Your wish is my command.

Probably best to just let the spider have the house and move out, really. It's his home now.
