Banana trees are also a great way to get tarantulas in your house. Tarantulas fucking love bananas, and they’ll find their way inside after the tree attracts them to your yard.
takes notes
Did someone say “tarantula?”
Tarantulas do not wanna mess with humans though. Not a great surprise to find one around but I wouldn't be worried about them.
I already have palm-sized trapdoor spiders that I find dead all over the place when the weather drastically changes. I've only ever found one seemingly healthy one in my house, so I scooped it up, thanked it for coming to visit me, and then placed it outside before the home insecticide could kill it. A found a dead one next to my car in the garage that morning—I don't know if it was my friend or one of his friends... Dude had some big ol' boxing gloves.
