Every year, around this time, the Tarantulas do their migration. Always an interesting site seeing those big hairy-arsed critters crawling about. Anyone else have critters migrating in their area this time of year?

That's awsome. How many do you see in a day? How long does the migration last? Do you know where they are coming from / going to? Sorry about the 3rd degree, but I'm genuinely fascinated.
Gotta say, though, it's a damn good thing they don't do that down here or my wife would be locked in the bathroom with a can of raid for the entire season.

It lasts a couple of weeks. I've not had one in the house yet, my brother walked into his kitchen and found one on the counter Depending on how far I drive I'll see 4 or 5 each trip walking across the road. I'm not sure on the reason for the migration but it may be that they breed here in the hills then head to lower ground for the winter, but I'm not sure on that.

We get Snowbirds migrating at this time of year. They are not pretty, they move slow, and they clog up traffic. I would rather the spiders.

I feel your pain. Living in a tourist area (Yosemite N.P.) it's h#$$ every summer.

Ducks, geese, elk, deer, etc. Most of the small critters around here dig in or head for my attic.

When I was a lot younger my folks had a house directly across the street, on higher ground, from a graveyard. With the coming of each storm and winter season the tarantula's would seek drier, warmer ground.

Now I have never been afraid of a tarantula, at least not the mild mannered ones we have here, but waking up from slumber with a big hairy spider on your chest and seeing a half dozen eyes "wink" at ya is just creepy.
