Q&A

Was the spider dangerous?

While I couldn't identify the specific spider, its size and appearance were intimidating. It's always better to err on the side of caution when dealing with large spiders.

Why didn't you kill the spider?

Killing the spider would have been risky, as it could have escaped or released baby spiders. Using a catch-and-release method was not feasible due to the spider's size and potential harm it could cause.

Did anyone else try to solve the problem?

My friends and I were all hesitant to take action, but I stepped up and found a unique solution using a door to keep the spider at bay.

Why didn't you get professional pest control services?

The cabin already had basic amenities, but pest control seemed to be lacking. It's possible that professional pest control services were not available or simply not utilized.

Have you encountered any other memorable spider encounters?

This spider encounter stands out as one of the most memorable. While I have come across spiders in other situations, none have been as dramatic as this one.
