Oooh, that's scary looking!

Cat Face.

 

[Spork]

:greg: Nice Hope you weren't eating your curds and whey when you saw it...

 

[Zombie]

Yup.. Cat Face. Those are really cool spiders. they can get HUGE too.
I had one that livet at my dad's house when I was hounger. I used to catch stuff and throw it in it's web to feed it. It's butt was about the size of a penny the last time I saw it.

 

[Herzog]

Yep, grew up with those in our yard every once in a while. They do get quite big. I always kept my distance though, I hate spiders.

 

[Brett]

Kill it now!

 

[spencurai]

I'm pretty sure it's harmless...its bite may be mildly irritating if it can even bite you. I say leave it be if it isn't in the way, maybe throw it in your flower beds or garden and let it resume its reign of terror on those pesky insects.

My rule is it can live as long as it stays out of the house although I do let trap-door spiders stay in the house, they are harmless and fun to watch climb the vaulted ceilings in my living room!

 

[notajeep]

I just screamed like a little girl..... Kill it... with a LONG stick!

I don't mind spiders, but I do HATE walking into spider webs. The first two hours walking around in my yard are spent with my arms in front of my face every damned day

I didn't kill him today, but he's gunna wanna pack his bags and get.... can't have spiders living in the horse trailer.

Araneus gemmoides

I bet the horses would rather have HER there than the flies.

Those things eat like monsters, and the big fat ones like that are females.

So my science teacher dad says.

 

[Meat_]

Her dumb ass was totally ignoring the still kicking mosquito that was in her web.

 

[BroncoMama]

That is absolutely disgusting Mr. Meat_ and I will thank you to keep your nasty ass pictures to yourself next time.

 

[Meat_]

Don't be hate'n

 

[BroncoMama]

Don't be nasty.

 

[yellowbronco]

I have found really big ugly red spiders like twice, I think. Not sure what they are, but

 

[StrobeNGH]

One year my brother and I were out hunting.
I was sitting on a log eating my lunch when my brother's eyes got huge, pointed at my side and said:
"that's a huge spi . . ."

I jumped up, saw a spider about the size of my palm that had reared up on its back 4 legs and was running at me.

Before he finished saying "spider" I had put 2 .45 rounds into it.

I HATE SPIDERS!!! Especially big brown ones charging me on 4 legs.
