Where did it come from?

I saw the biggest spider ever in my bathroom yesterday. I live on the ground floor but there is no window in the bathroom. I am guessing it did not come in the front door and wander into the bathroom, so I am wondering how it got in. All the fittings are new and there are no gaps in the skirting boards. Could it have come up the bath plug hole and climbed up the side? Or could it have come up the hand basin?

Spiders usually come in up the plug hole in the bath.
I assume you have got windows and doors in your flat? It came in through a window or door, and walked along your ceiling.

Spiders are in baths because they fall off the ceiling, not because they've climbed up the drain.
Spiders can crawl through the tiniest of gaps, strange though that they always end up in the bath

Also I can`t see why people panic over spiders, it`s not as if they jump up and attack

Its because they move so quickly and we are programmed to be scared of them. Many are poisonous.
maybe you brought it in with you.. on your clothes... ewwwwww!!!
I'm not sure I agree that spiders fall off ceilings into baths. When my daughter was about 10 having a bath she watched a massive spider pop out of the overflow into the water. She blocked the holes with tissue for years after. Anyway I've never seen a spider fall off a ceiling ( maybe come down on a thread but the bigs ones don't do that anyway). They are disgusting things whatever they do.

I plug bath & sink overflows with tissue and have a bath and sink plug drainer, they come in white plastic or silver metal type, large and small for basin and bath & kitchen! They're only about �1 each. If you have a Terry's hardware shop they always seem to stock them or if not any hardware even Wickes B&Q etc.. They freak me out too! Don't believe the ceiling walk???? bit sus....

''Many are poisonous.''

Where do you live lyn?
its thirsty....give it a drink & throw out.
I watched a spider abseiling from the ceiling the other night, perhaps it's a member of the SAS,special air spider.
if so,perhaps there is a group of SBS, special bath spider that is capable of swimming through the u bend. oo er!
lyn... are you sure it was a spider and not a rogue ball of pubic hair?
