Azalar Hex Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I've been seeing these little assholes skittering around corners a few times since I moved into this apartment. I got a really shitty picture of this one before he accidentally turned into a pile of smashed goo. Probably should have picked him up on some paper and got a better picture but fuck this guy. About the size of a quarter. Black body with brown stripes down the ass from what I can tell. Either that or it's the ass that's black. Got no idea what direction it was facing. Been seeing thick solid brown ones, too. But they are always dead. Any one of you know spiders? Should I be worried that they are going to carry my father away in the night?

Azalar Hex Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 are you comfortable sharing what region you live in? I love spiders! it's legs don't look long enough to be a brown recluse Southern US. Yeah, I've been going through all sorts of sites looking at pictures. This guy was definitely too thick to be a recluse. I keep seeing similar images in the wolf spiders, but they are all just a bit too far off. I kinda wish I hadn't of smashed it. Just so I could have something to do right now figuring out if these things are a problem or just a nuisance. I wonder if I can train them to eat bedbugs. I will fucking sleep with one of those fuckers on my forehead if it gets rid of that shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're good! don't quote me on that, though... hahhahha usually the prettier/shinier/skinnier the more deadly. if it's chubby usually they are just cute little babies!

I'm seeing a lot of that while reading up on them. Getting the heebie jeebies. I grabbed what was left of the spider on some paper to look at it and the fan blew the corpse into my tea. So there's that. I'll just go with not poisonous since two sources have suggested that might be the case and try not to lose any sleep over it.

PhilosipherStoned Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Too blurry hard to identify. but it could be a hobo or house spider... A small one if so. Or baby wolf spider it's just way to hard to tell from the picture... If it's a hobo spider it's kind of bad news because their venoms simular to that of the brown recluse.
