^ & ^^ those are some web weaving motherfuckers - I'm always on the lookout for them during the summer when I'm mowing near the house/trees.

I see a spider and a couple of pubes. Gross.

10/12/2014 4:55:43 PM

almost 5 incher, no harm was done to the spider, he was too unique for that

10/12/2014 7:12:55 PM

10/13/2014 10:48:57 AM

released him on the porch to go eat more mice or whatever the hell he eats

10/13/2014 4:56:08 PM

Good work!

10/14/2014 10:41:52 AM

wtf is it?

10/14/2014 11:05:03 AM

I hopefully killed about a 4" one with a golfball sized body yesterday. Sprayed the shit out of it.

If they're big enough to eat wasps, then they're A-OK in my book. Fuck wasps.

Was mowing down some high grass/weeds in the vacant lot next to my home. Saw something jumping around that I thought was a frog or toad. Nope it was a spider. Ran that bitch over with the mower before he tried to eat me and my family.

Since when did there exist spiders that burrowed into living flesh?

10/18/2014 4:21:21 PM

11/11/2014 5:05:36 PM

It should be a dead spider.

11/11/2014 5:06:07 PM

can anyone advise on a good spider book with picture ID and descriptions? Would like one in similar format to "Living Snakes of the World" by John M. Mehrtens (Aug 1987)

Wonder if it is this: http://www.insectidentification.org/insect-description.asp?identification=Marbled-Orb-Weaver

^I concur. Nothing more lovely than an evening walk through the yard into it's silky facial snare.
