How often do these spiders get into your houses?

Only once a year or so.

I'm not scared of spiders, but those look creepy as fück.

i cant see youtube at work, what type of spider is it?

Not sure tbh. Comments all say dif stuff. From "barking" to "goliath" to "huntsman"

I was going to say huntsman, but it's not - they're spindlier (thorax isn't as big)

My parents place gets huntsman's fairly regularly - once a month or so. They don't do much but sit on the wall. My place in Melbourne doesn't really get any to speak of, I may have my cat to thank for that. He eats anything which tries to come in. Flies included (which is hilarious to watch)
