Deadly Spiders Vs Eucalyptus Spray & Thomas The Spider Tank Inspection Week 16

[@leokimvideo]

Many questions answered and the ultimate spider is the quiet achiever who was always lurking around. The eucalyptus spray I use in this video was a chance find for me and NOT paid placement. It will be curious to see if the company REACTS to the unusual use I have for their most amazing product. www.bosistos.com.au/product/bosistos-eucalyptus-spray-9

[@execation]

leokimvideo Peppermint oil works too. I use it to keep away the MA-HOOOSIVE house spiders we get in the UK this time of year.

[@notimportant3394]

Leo, can you elaborate on the false widow observations? I thought I had watched the whole series, and noticed you mentioned them a few times, but at the end of this video it appeared as though you observed them to be more prolific than the redbacks? If so, that's quite a statement given the tenacity of the redbacks... did they coexist through mutual fear, their body silhouette making them appear to be part of the redback pack thus avoiding aggression, or something else? Perhaps a battle royalle is in order? :) I'm very interested to examine their cohabitation further.

[@leokimvideo]

The other mystery spiders added there on week 1 transformed during the 16 weeks. They were reclusive and often hiding out under the CAT toy truck. It was the audience that did the ID of these spiders but there were many names being thrown about. Put it this way they look very similar to the Redbacks but their rear section is shiny and not matt like Redbacks. The red markings are also totally missing. They were the quiet achievers in the spider tank over the 16 weeks, survivors is a tank of spider death where the Redbacks would kill anything and everything. There has been the thought form many who watch the spider videos that the False Widows are a natural Redback spider killer. You know that idea doesn't sound that silly now considering the most spiders left in the tank were False Widows. Put it this way something ate thousands of Redback spiderlings!

[@leokimvideo]

Also remember there was a 4 week period where no observations of the tank happened. This must be the time when the spider balance shifted to the False Widows. The Redbacks spiders must have become food for the False Widows unless it was Gonzo's ghost that did the killing.

[@leokimvideo]

I have done a video of the many False Widows I found. Put it this way where the False Widows live there were no Redbacks!kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5yQf4R3m7asmdk

[@sheep12121]

Spider tank 1.0 was the greatest series iv seen on youtube!

[@voncinnamon1]

Gonzo has been avenged. RIP Gonzo til we meet again

[@photonicenergysource6192]

Amen

[@brotherblood1180]

Thomas is truly an inspiration to us all no matter how bad it got in the tank he continued to smile through thick and thin rain and hail

[@manuelayala9234]

brother blood your right lol

[@EndNoble]

Gonzo can finally stop rolling around in his grave. Retribution!

[@leokimvideo]

Gonzo was the spider tank anti hero who became the hero. He will never be forgotten.

[@expertoflizardcorrugation3967]

leokimvideo I loved that little guy viva la revolucion

[@emilmagnusson8061]

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@Wade1.2]

RIP GONZO IF U DIED!!!!!!!!

[@haveagreatday3664]

Hey Leo! Hope you’re doing well. I just found out about something that may help you with the wet sludge at the bottom of the tank. There’s this stuff called “activated charcoal” powder. It is used as an additive for dirt in planters and terrariums. It can be used instead of regular soil. It looks just like dirt or coffee grounds but it is antimicrobial and fungicidal and helps with the moisture and the rotting smells from dankness. Great stuff. I think they sell it at most garden stores. Thank you for your videos!!! Can’t wait for ST 2.0.

[@frankie_montague_silentf335]

Nice comment It annoyed me that it got really dirty

[@alyxhowlette4552]

So happy to see there is a spider tank 2.0. Leo, there is no one else on KZbin doing this sort of spider tank thing, and because of that I’ve been hooked. I’m so excited to hear this is not the end.

[@BonesAndJuice]

Loved the spider series. Looking forwards to tank 2.0. Learned a lot, entertained more. Thank you Leo.

[@chensumoka5227]

That spray sounds incredible. Such a versatile product. I really hope they sell that in the U.K. Great video btw, been watching you for a while.

[@andrewcomments5812]

Great video, Leo! I was impressed as you were with that Eucalyptus spray!

[@Jesicrisms]

This felt like a season finale to watch. Thanks again Leo and looking forward to your future spider vids!

[@hikkeen]

Thanks Leo. I know youtube hasn't been the best for you this year but finding you through the Spider videos has been great for me. Since it is past Halloween now I wonder how your garden is holding up against any new outbreaks. Thanks again.

[@Jagrok13]

Youre very good at talking. I absolutely love these videos.

[@JediMasterLucia]

Can't wait for spider tank 2.0 I have to say that i have learned a lot about redbacks and like to see more of it. these spider video's are the best i have seen.

[@bloodySNiP]

Good experiment! Learned a lot about how dangerous these spiders really are

[@BobTheSpiderHunter]

Hmmm...

[@babyybatter]

this has been your best series yet. i've been watching this spider tank stuff since day 1 and every episode has been amazing

[@robinpinkham9398]

This is a great series and truly amazing video! Waiting anxiously for 2.0!!

[@tachee77910]

If you put small gravel and not dirt maybe it would help for the glass to not get that dirty and please make the tank 2.0 bigger . Thanks for your video

[@WickedWitchOfTheNorth]

Absolutely amazing video!! I can’t wait for your next one!! It’s been way too long! I can’t wait to see your new spider tank, and I must agree the praying mantis 3 day fight was absolutely epic in all ways. Love your commentary on all your videos keep up the hard work Leo!

[@wesleycantrell332]

The was funny *sprays spider with spider killer* *spider dies slowly* Leo: "well goodnight sista" *crushes spider with tweezers* Leo: "I think I just crushed this little guy with the tweezers; isn't that sad." That logic is nice

[@saeriel2310]

Wesley Cantrell rip

[@saeriel2310]

What about fire? Goodnight sista

[@nickdehart5702]

Fantastic video. Fantastic series. I started watching you Leo through these Redback spider videos. I wish you much success and can't wait until we see 2.0.

[@BaltimoreActual]

Thanks for bringing us another spider video, Leo

[@kriskaniac6556]

Your videos have totally helped me with my arachnophobia, thanks!

[@mathewyee4800]

GREAT RED BACK SPIDER FOOTAGE FROM LEOKIMVIDEO, KEEP UP WITH THE GOOD WORK !!!

[@WAFLNeo]

I've been watching your videos for a good year now and i'm real damn happy I stumbled across your channel, I found you while searching for the PS1 game "Spider" and pretty much haven't missed a video (Even the toy videos gave me a laugh or two) Just sending a genuine thank you for the entertainment.

[@TC-tn9tb]

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yes spider tank 2.0 just made my christmas thanks leo.

[@marijanes4207]

SUPER HYPED WATCHING thnks Leo m8

[@brichardsfourty]

Love watching your videos Leo Kim video

[@Unclejohnmarnes]

Had one in my mailbox this week..didn’t look and felt something crawling on my hand and there one was. I didn’t get bit. Needless to say I nearly lost my mind.

[@gooberus9167]

Vadim Anatolovych that's crazy

[@Kinofspawn]

They are a mostly harmless species Widows and Red backs. Only people ever effected by their bites are often already very weak/sick or already near death. Another thing that makes them harmless other than their venom not being designed for humans is that their fangs are very very short. And often can't fully penetrate parts of the body.

[@thedemonstriker7385]

Keep up the good work guys👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@debbiemendenhall8707]

I can't wait to see 2.0 i love your spider vids

[@thecollector75]

I think we need some uranium or plutonium in spider tank 2.0 ..... see what spider mutants he can male

[@rosegold-beats]

zombie radiation spiders. rip world

[@the_mayne]

I haven't seen this series since week 6 and dang the terrarium has come a long way since it was first put together :D

[@twilightsparklebaseform6628]

RIP spider weeks August 2016-November 2017

[@angelbarclay5717]

I have been waiting to see them killed off, I thought it would be with fire. But it is nice to see the toys after the bugs got to play with them! :)

[@leahhadley6779]

So satisfying to see it all sprayed

[@trinomial-nomenclature]

w/w is weight per weight. I worked in a Pharmacy and when something was w/w, it usually meant there were two solids mixed together (although, it has oil as an ingredient ... Chemistry can be weird). v/v is volume per volume and means two liquids were mixed together. You can also have w/v (weight per volume) and v/w (volume per weight).

[@leokimvideo]

I'm wrong again, your correct. I'm again exposed as a dumb person So what is that 25% WW mean, is it good or bad because now I'm totally confused

[@leokimvideo]

Also thank God someone smart is here watching on KZbin...sometimes I do wonder!

[@trinomial-nomenclature]

leokimvideo 25% w/w means that 25% of the total product is Eucalyptus Oil. If you look at the ingredients list on majority of the products out there, they never mention how much of each ingredient is in the product (unless you're dealing with creams, lotions, liquids etc. from the Pharmacy, they list the % in either w or v / w or v of the active ingredient). Back to your question on whether it's good or not? Having 1/4 of a product containing the Active Ingredient (the components or chemicals of a product which are responsible for producing its chemical or biological {pharmacological} activity or performance objectives) seems like a pretty decent amount. I know the product containing the eucalyptus oil isn't generally used as a insecticide, however, to give you a bit of a perspective, "insecticide sprays typically constitute only 0.75% by weight of the entire product"¤ or other words 0.75% w/w ¤(www.businessdictionary.com/definition/active-ingredients.html). With any product having one ingredient take up 25% of the whole products weights, you know that the product will be strong. So when you are looking at insecticides, somewhere on the can usually around the ingredients list it should list the active ingredient(s), there can be multiple. Products that could be better are ones that: 1) have multiple active ingredients (as it'll usually kill more than one thing or it'll provide more than one insecticide in case the insect is immune to the first one) or 2) has a higher concentration of the active ingredient (making the product stronger). However, I need to be very clear that I AM NOT AN EXPERT IN INSECTICIDES, these are just guesses as these rules apply to Pharmaceuticals. Please, do NOT get complacent when handling deadly insects and insecticides because of what I have said. ***I will not be held responsible for any damage and/or loss due to any mishandling of deadly insects and insecticide, as I have cleared that I AM NOT AN EXPERT WITH DEADLY INSECTS OR INSECTICIDE!*** I hope this information helps and sorry it was such a long response. Thanks for the compliment in your other comment. You are not dumb!! I would have never known what that meant had I not gone through College. No need to be hard on yourself, everyone is knowledgeable in different areas and I'm sure there are things you know that I know nothing about!!

[@marilyngandhi4213]

You're advertising Bosistos, it is a great product :-)

[@jonahtan93]

I didn't realize it before this video. But I've really been waiting for it!

[@janedoe6181]

You had me scared there for a bit, Leo! When you ended the life of tank 1.0 and said you had learned all you could from it, I thought you were quitting the spider🕷 filming business.

[@thetraindriver01]

Looking forward to spider tank 2.0 Leo 👍👍👍

[@cinnybatter]

Yes, new spider video! I love you Leo. ♡

[@nugget6820]

yay u r the best youtuber ever woooooooo

[@StealthyWolfDaddyWerewolf]

I was waiting for the day to see this video. So thankful the old tank is dead and gone, lol!

[@chrispeat285]

Good luck finding the new cleaning friendly tank Leo great videos as always me and my son would be gutted if u stopped 👍

[@samthomas9574]

I'd be tempted to sprinkle cress seed or something over the mud / surface stuff. See how a bit of vegetation growing over time interacts with it. Might bring a new dynamic with the prey too giving places to hide and feed themselves.

[@marilyngandhi4213]

I think you are a very brave man !!!!

[@DJFrenchFry]

What a fun journey to watch

[@arjanwilbie2511]

Leo, a income idea could be the sale of items featured in the tank. Every episode on tank 2.0 could have a corner with a item and sell it off the next episode. A eBay auction or patron lottery for the 2,50 range tier.

[@neilhuband995]

Leo, have you tried spray lacquer, like rattle can clear coat for cars? Obviously not much use in the house lol, but I'd still be interested to see it. It's bound to suffocate them? Either that or just chemically destroy :-D Your content is good mate, cheers! And when are we gonna see this 3d printer of yours in operation?

[@noneya8831]

rip tank :( I shall miss those vids..thats why i subscribed to your channel....

[@metaparcel]

That escapee almost pulled a fast one on ya. Luckily...dusted!!!

[@UberElvis]

Well done Leo ! I certainly look forward to Spidahtank 2.0. A critique of your series, if I may... Fan-fucken-tastic !! I am, or was, or maybe so a little less, but still - an arachnophobe. I stumbled upon your series in week 2 or 3 while binge watching Monster Bug Wars and was hooked almost right away. Your curiosity about these wee beasties was contagious and I was quickly hooked and looked forward to your ( somewhat erratic ) next episode. Your presentation and growth during the evolution of the series was a pleasure to observe. From about week 5 or so you polished up your hosting skills and presentation. You obviously read and paid attention to your fanbase and commenters, as evidenced by your response to questions and suggestions from your fanbase. I think you did a great job this season and I really look forward to season, and Spidahtank, 2. I would only ask ( and I know you have a life that interrupts filming, but you're like the crack dealer handing out free samples to get us hooked... then look out !! ) - I would only ask that you stick to a predictable schedule for posting. OH! Loved the TL show mid schedule. You're right. Tons of shit you miss until you slow it down to observe. At any rate... great show, great season, great idea in the first place. Don't leave us hanging too long, we your loyal fans. Til next season, then and of course I'm still subscribed for new stuff . Good job !!

[@peterlowe2296]

I've been waiting a while to see this video, it all ends quite ignominiously with a spray and a good night sister. I did wonder how things would turn out, been a fascinating study. It has made me take more of an interest in spiders I want to do my own spider tank but English spiders are boring, funny because I only found these videos when I saw a false widow spider run past on the carpet when I was in Hostel in Oban Scotland, I had never seen that black bulbus back before with a funny pattern. You are correct the red back is an awesome spider although we don't say awesome very much here. Will look into doing my own spider tank. I really enjoyed the Mercedes Benz spider video too, you can buy a fish tank with those curved sides from Amazon it is £127GBP they were developed to stop fish swimming round and round bending their spines I think. Love your videos keep em coming Leo!

[@christinevb3861]

“Deadly spider legs in the air syndrome” lol well said

[@liox2597]

Mid February 2017? I've been watching this since week 1, I want more!

[@kyleb1933]

Sucks that you're done with the spider tank cuz I always looked forward to it, but I'm glad you're doing another! Good to know 👍

[@TheGameGuruTv]

your videos are damn addictive

[@nikyoung5246]

Awesome series

[@marilyngandhi4213]

I believe termites love eucalyptus trees - your video shows that the wasps are really protecting your house from spiders and termites

[@Dia_7hom]

When you’re watching a spider vid and your dogs tail brushes against your arm.... 😱

[@lycan36]

another great interesting video do love your commentary. im an animal lover all life is precious etc but when it comes to your country and your spiders etc can n have killed sod that be to scared to go into the garden plus your kids safety always first well family a ! looking forwards to new tank. you thought of making your own cylinder tank out of piece of perspex sheet ? all the best !

[@mrskeen1770]

I love that eucalyptus spay. I use it all the time.

[@matt62809]

My guy goin hard with the eucalyptus

[@TheMalladus]

Stuff off spiders nightmares? Isnt that just your flamethrower leo 😂

[@John-ju9dt]

Good night sister! Cracks me up

[@shrilleth]

You should make the next Tank cylindrical, so there would be no corners. You could even put it on one of those turntables you use for the Trackmaster videos, to make it easier to turn and look at.

[@emmymilly852]

Wow I'm early anyways I am scared of spiders but with you talking and they can't get me I am calm :)

[@bunsen_burna7663]

Do a fishing video sometime :D

[@enbeast8350]

I'm sad to see it end, but you know what, good on you for making your experiment a place of learning. I'm sorry assholes were making it harder on you, but I'm glad you also are planning a 2.0! Maybe a cylindrical place would be best. They wouldn't be able to hide in corners then

[@Jesus-pg6gq]

Cool video

[@blackmeinu1]

You should try jumping spiders Leo.

[@blblbl115]

Leo. Out of all the other critters you've put to the test. There is one major arachnid predator you haven't tried... A frog.

[@MCWren]

You should do a spider tank with one of those orb weavers or some different spider, it would be really interesting to see how they differ from the redbacks.

[@DavidPutraØP]

Excellent

[@blackmeinu1]

I think a bigger & more ventilated tank would be great.

[@jaydensaw2947]

2.0s gonna be lit

[@michaeldebidart]

Did I miss the showdown between John Cena and the dragonfly or was it not recorded? Would love to see that. Also, I felt like I was watching a significant historical event watching the tank get neutralized. End of an era stuff. Sadness and joy all at once.

[@brandonhuman8491]

When is 2.0 coming? I've got a few widows & about 300 widow spiderlings .I've learned a lot from you. As well as how similar the red back is to the black widow. From playing dead to their deadly spiderly instincts.

[@thyandyr7369]

Crazy thing that Eucalyptus!

[@burmesebeef]

Island Terror idea: get a large square tank, put a circular pan in the middle filled with sand(this will be the island for the spiders), surround the pan with hydrogen peroxide or water with Predatory fishies. This way the spider's will be surrounded by danger and will not be able to climb the glass and you don't have to worry about escaping bugs

[@evilbefall98]

Sell those items in the tanks, im sure people will buy it XD

[@colinmatthews7105]

I unliked this video. Just to like it again! Keep up the good work Leo!

[@kaceymarshall7011]

Love it. I made my arachnophobic mum watch this 😂

[@gregoryswinson4549]

Thomas the train, what a trooper!

[@pungency101]

You should start a funnel web enclosure! Watching from ireland here, spent 7 months in melbourne. Love the videos! Keep them coming

[@StealthyWolfDaddyWerewolf]

You should put the spiders and sacks in one tank and keep the single spiders in another. Also put the victims in a mason jar or dispose of them. But if you keep the single spiders in one tank, you can count and remove them if you need to clean. I also would keep the eggs in a different tank for safety.

[@turbostoep]

Looking foward to 2.0 . Those false widows are a nightmare . They've infested the whole bloody flat building i live in, here in holland which normally has no dangerous spiders at all. Climate change i guess , anyhow time to move further north towards the cold.

[@demolin2814]

I think you should have more than one type of spider (the new ones that you find) so the viewers could look at em more and you know...

[@archiethedog4515]

You should put the X-Wing, luke, and Yoda in there.

[@steeeeshy8326]

I just squashed the like button, cause the spider is in the way

[@johnno1132]

Hey man what about a tank of mails so they can't lay the sacks? That way you just get a battle arena 😂

[@jguam123]

Maybe u can put tissue or paper towel on that velcro part of the magnetic tank cleaner. Should still work the same.

[@rizzle7581]

I’m getting a pet spider lol 😝

[@COctagons]

Next ultimate predator: the koala spider! Eucalyptus won't save you now!!

[@NosDemonic]

Spider apocalypse: Day of the Tweasers!

[@dragonxtcz]

Lol I had this exact same thing. But I had a shitload of bull ants and they ruled everything. I had 7 or 8 adult female red backs and hundreds or thousands of bull ants. Red backs stayed away from the ants as much as they could. Bull ants are very interesting to watch as well.
