The black house spider (Badumna insignis) is common in Tasmanian houses and gardens. In nature, they will usually nest in rough- barked trees. It is when they venture to civilisation that they become problematic, as they tend to build webs in corners, along with windows and doorways and in lights that they use to attract prey. Webs are usually funnel-shaped. The bite is poisonous but is not considered dangerous.
The huntsman spider (Sparassidae) is commonly found in Tasmanian urban areas. They are considered a large spider by Tasmanian standards with body length often reaching 70mm. Many huntsman spiders are dull shades of brown or grey. Their legs are covered with fairly prominent spines, but the rest of their bodies appear smooth. They are frequently found in sheds, garages and other infrequently-disturbed places.
The Redback Spider (Latrodectus hasselti) is common through most gardens in Tasmania. Webs are usually built in dry, sheltered sites, such as among rocks, in logs, shrubs, old tires, sheds, outhouses, children's toys or under rubbish or litter. They are common in garden sheds. Redbacks are considered one of the most dangerous spiders in Australia. The Redback spider has neurotoxic venom which is toxic to humans with bites causing severe pain.
White-Tailed (or white-tipped) spiders have a dull black, elongate body with a distinctive white spot at the end of the abdomen. Females have a plump abdomen and grow up to 20 mm long, while males are thinner and grow to about 12 mm long. Adult white-tailed spiders have reddish legs and two pairs of faint white spots on the top of the abdomen. Young spiders have striped legs with more distinct white spots which fade with age.
Tasmania has several species of mammal that we call rat, but the two most common rat are introduced species, the Brown or Norway Rat (Rattus norvegicus) and the Black rat (Rattus Rattus). Both rats are true omnivores, eating anything within range is sure to not put meats into your compost. The rats often inhabit areas close to running water although a Frisbee in the yard can supply a rat with enough liquid to survive.
A common problem in all Tasmanian suburbs is the bee, yellow and black with an elongated abdomen. These are the bees that sting and swarm and nest within your house. The bee will create a hive rapidly so long as a queen is present. When a queen moves hive she regularly takes a swarm with her to establish a new hive- these swarms can infest your eaves, chimneys or walls within minutes of arrival.
Silverfish are nocturnal, elongated and flattened insects typically 13-25 millimeters long. Their abdomen tapers at the end, giving them a fish-like appearance. Lepisma saccharina is the name given to these pests because of their diet. The feast upon sugars and starches and commonly ruin paper and linen materials.
There are up to 100 species of scorpion in Australia with several being present in Tasmanian suburbs. They have eight legs and are easily recognized by the pair of grasping claws and the narrow, segmented tail, often carried in a characteristic forward curve over the back, ending with a venomous stinger. If stung the sting area may blister and a strong ache, similar to a wasp sting, is experienced lasting for a few hours.
