I fumigated the car with a bug bomb, and then sprayed crawly cruncher into the gaps where I wasn't sure the gas would get into.

Presumably, being Aussie spiders
these would be things like my personal favourite the golden orb weaver, delightfully described in the botanics in Sydney as "considered harmless by Australian standards. Territorial and very aggresive, even towards humans. Bite side effects include irritation, swelling, nausea, dizziness, tissue necrosis" ?

You country has epic cuntspiders.

Huntsmans, a weird orange striped one, and lots smaller black ones.

Huntsmans are possibly the ugliest bastard spiders in the world
Although, bizarrely, they aren't venomous, are they? They must get the piss ripped solidly by all the other spiders.

They don't need to be poisonous
They're big enough to wrestle you to the ground and inject their eggs directly down your throat facehugger style, should they so choose.

Sorry, venomous.
I do know the difference, honest.

"Considered harmless by Australian standards" "tissue necrosis"
There is no other place on Earth so utterly inimical to human life as Australia aside from the bottom of the ocean.

I cannot for the life of me work out
why little things with no natural predators bigger than a hedgehog would evolve venom so extravegantly lethal that it can bring down a hippo.
