So this is the second time I've seen one in a week. It's brown, about the size of a tarantula, but with longer legs, super fast, and it can crawl up walls (actually I saw it crawling up a mirror, although I don't know how high it can actually go). This is literally one of my worst nightmares. This time it was in my bedroom. The last time there was one in the "living room" area, and I had friends over, one of which was a guy who smashed it for me. I thought a wolf spider half or one third that size was bad, took me 3 days to kill that sucker in my bedroom this past autumn. Now there are two of them chilling around my bathroom, which is fine. As long as it doesn't come in my bedroom, I leave it alone. But this monster spider came in my bedroom. This is what happened:
It's 2 am. I decided to stay up late and talk to a friend online and I'm exhausted.
Several minutes after I turn off the light, I hear a plastic bag covering something on the floor rattling.
I get worried, hoping it is a cockroach like last time.
I use my cellphone to light up the area a bit and see it is something big, dreading the worst.
When I turn on the light, my suspicions are confirmed. It's a monster spider, slowly trying to climb up my mirror.
I grab my broom from another room and try to smash it but to no avail. It runs under my bed, a place I can't get to.
I sob uncontrollably for several minutes. There is no one I can call at this time to help me.
The spider does not come back out, so I will have to battle it if I see it again. I make a plan.
I clean up the floor and roll up the sheets on the sides of my bed, just in case.
I turn my air conditioning on as low as it will go and leave the light on.
At first I try to sleep with my covers wrapped around me like a cocoon, but it's too hot.
In the end, I try to sleep with the light on, but it is difficult, and do not sleep well.
I think it is still under my bed. Monsters really can live under your bed.
Have you seen giant spiders like this? What can I do? It's not like I can ask my friend to smash it again. The bed is big and heavy, and I don't know if it is still under there or not. This is a holiday. I should be relaxing, not freaking out over something like this.

Yes, I saw one once the size of a baseball. Fortunately I was already urinating. Also got peed on by a spider once. It left a huge raised area around my armpit, in which I found an eggsack embedded in my skin. I think it was protecting its unborn.
Depending on the floor material (not carpeting) tile is fine. If you want to keep any spider away from you. put a trail of soapy water as a barrier. If you can see the spider spray it with soapy water. Trying to crush one with a broom etc is a waist of time. The ones I saw in Nanning were so fast by the time the broom hit the floor the spider was gone. Soapy water does the trick. Franck3
