    Default Spiders.... Uggghhhh!!!!!

    My boyfriend saw a spider in the house the other day and another one today. We've been googling it all evening but can't find a picture of it. He described it as being orange, about an inch long/big, with kinda black tips. If anyone knows what kind of spider it might be, I would love any suggestions. I hate spiders and I'm gonna be paranoid until I'm sure my apt isn't infested with poiseness spiders. THANX!!!!

    Orange with black tips? Nope. You don't mention where you are, but the only two truly poisonous spiders are the black widow and the brown recluse. Black widows are really obvious from their body shape, but the recluses are kinda creepy since I know of several species around here that resemble them. Here's a quick link with good pics:

    I've had a Wood Spider aka Cave Cricket in my house. Kinda looks like a cricket with eight legs and boy can they jump! Their too big to kill so you have to sneak up on them and try to catch them. I sneak up on them with my vacuum, suck em' up and then leave the vacuum in the garage until hubby gets home so he can take the bag out and throw it away. God I hate those fuckers.

    One of these was on the wall in my laundry room for a day or two. I couldn't stop staring at it.



    It's called a wolf spider. The one in my laundry room was about the size of my pinky (including his legs).

    I found it fascinating and then, one day, he was gone. But I still look for him or one like him.

    Must be the dork in me.

    EWWWW!!!! God spiders just gimme the heeby-jeebies!!!!!

    Southstbabe- Yea we used to get those in the house when I was growing up all the time! Those things are scary. And then they jump which makes it worse. But what's worse it when you are in bed and you feel somthing jumping in your hair in the middle of the night, then when you go to swipe at it it's a big ass jumping spider!!!! That happened to me once and ever since then, if I see a spider in the house, I stay paranoid cuz I'm scared it will crawl in the bed with me.

    Lol! I almost went screaming for real when DylanAngel posted that big picture of a spider!!

    I saw a commercial for outdoor foggers. You can use them on patios and stuff, so I think that's what I'm going to do.

    There was a great horror story about a guy who killed a spidey in his sink. It kept coming back, bigger & bigger each time, til it was the size of a damn burro...

    Yucky I HATE spiders. Got bit by a black widow when I was little *shudder*. Anywho, don't have any idea what your spider could be, the only kind of spiders I like are smushed ones.

    ^Spiders lay eggs, thousands of them. They do not gestate the young internally.

    Anything that kills annoying insects such as flies has my admiration.

    But that's still not internal. Smooshing it wouldn't make babies go everywhere.

    That's a beautiful spider! Glad I'm not the only one who likes them. I feel like my girly-ness is being questioned whenever I say they don't bother me.

    I want a pink toed Tarantula but fiance is the squeamish one, so no spiders for Dylan other than the odd one who wanders in.
