Just something about spiders I love.

Let's keep it rolling, gentlemen!
Vez, do you keep any true spiders at all?

Just the occasional Jumper that I find in the yard. I used to keep a black widow, but let it go before I moved back to MO. I've had a few wolf spiders in the past as well.
My wife loves spiders. We frequently have small spiders living in our kitchen in the summer time. Our house is not very tight and gnats come in, the spiders feed on the gnats. Spiders are absolutely fascinating creatures. We of course remove them from our bedroom as any spider bite is nasty but we do not have many poisinous ones here in MI. This is a pic my wife took in our back yard one night of a nocturnal spider.
I love those orb weavers. I always have a few of them hanging off my eaves.
I seem to walk into one atleast a few times every summer. I love spiders, of course, but not when they're crawling on my face

That is a Marbled spider. We get them all over through out the summer. Its peaceful and non poisonous. Best off all they eat stink bugs!
My white knee went for me recently whilst I was wiping moisture out of her tank. Most seem to be pretty docile, but mine's a nasty little s%$!
No way am I ever trying to handle her!

A. geniculata?
Almost all spiders are venomous with the exception of a few. Orb weavers are venomous but pose no threat to humans.
I had a Rose Hair that would put an Usambara Baboon to shame.

not me. spider = kill with fire. fortunately around the house we have a steady supply of lizards
That's the one! The bigger she gets, the worse the attitude
I have a spiderweb on my backyard patio that caught a 2 inch long scorpion. I have been looking, but haven't see the owner of the web...
That's interesting.
Creepy little buggers.
These are the Spyders I love:

Please don't. That's quite rude. These are some of my pets. And this thread is about the appreciation of spiders.
Fine with me - as long as they are in a pen and not running around my house
I actually have seen these as a pet. They move out FAST if they get out onto the floor.Similar threads
