I went to relocate a spider outside yesterday like I normally do. Scooped it up in Tupperware and took it outside without much thought.

Only when I released it did I realise it was a redback. Those I usually do murder if I find them in the house, mainly out of concern for my dog. I'm now reconsidering that approach. It was no biggie catching or releasing it (huntsmans are a whole other story... So fast and jumpy) so maybe I'll do that in future.
