Giant House Spider - Eratigena atrica {explored}

Now regarded as 3 species E. atrica, E. duellica and E. saeva but not easily separated.

This one was in a bathroom. It is a male. The males walk around the house at night and sometimes as you lie in bed, you can actually hear one walking across a wooden floor surface which seems pretty cool to me.

The females tend to stay put in one place waiting for the males to find them.

I quite like sharing a house with some of these but many folks here are freaked out by these gentle giants!
