Title: Theridiiae family i think
Post by Reelthing on 03/07/11 at 23:49:18

Each year as it warms up out come the critters - if this one had any red on it at all it would already be dead - but I'm not sure what it is yet:

According to my daughter,if itsa spidera, itsa grossa, tooa,..

If its black & has a red hourglass shape on its belly, itsa deada,,
If its brown & has a violin on its back, itsa deada..
Thems the only ones I know how to identify & know theyre dangerous. .
Websites say Black Widow & Brown REcluse are the only seriously venomous spiders in Texas.

Worked on a drill barge in the bayous in Louisiana. The stern was where they kept all the barrels of waste oil & stuff. It was loaded with huge, colorful spiders. Id go back there & watch them do what spiders do. No one else would ever come back there with me,, they missed so much. Its been 33 years & I still remember watching those things catch & kill their prey.

I always liked the huge colorful barn spiders.
I usually get some around the house, on the porch, just let them do their thing.

Awww, it's so pretty, I freakin love spiders (cept when they touch me or magically appear right in front of me, or when I walk into a hanging one or... well, I love looking at them). ;)

Yup, arthropodic insect control system. One of the few things that likes my boat more than I do!
