Watch: Australian woman forced to drive for 20 minutes with a GIANT huntsman spider crawling inches from her face

A spider crawling around your car is never fun but especially when it’s the size of your hand.

Unfortunately for this Australian woman, she had to endure the ordeal of a giant huntsman spider crawling around just inches from her face for 20 minutes.

And what made this particular ordeal even worse was that Bianca Merrick had already been terrorised by the 10cm arachnid once before.

The 24-year-old from Coffs Harbour, New South Wales, is now considering selling her Volkswagen Golf in case the spider has built a nest inside.

The food truck worker said: “I couldn’t believe the same thing happened twice.

“After I couldn’t find it the morning after it appeared the first time, I was super confident it was no longer in the car and had got out.

“But as I parked up last night, it came out from the passenger side and started crawling up the passenger window right at me.

Ms Merrick, said that people watching her video were clear about what she do to get rid of the spider.

She added: “A lot of people were like ‘kill it with fire’ but we value our insects [sic] in this household.

“I have been living in Melbourne for the last five years and just moved back here, so I forgot how much nature there is around. I’m constantly getting bitten by things, there’s leeches – it’s crazy.

“But this whole thing is definitely the scariest spider experience I’ve ever had.”
