Looking at those pictures creeps me the fuck out. When there's a spider near me, especially in my room, I freak the fuck out. How could anyone like spiders? :undecided:

eris, your spider is definitely a wolf spider. They get pretty damn big, but I've never heard of them jumping. The biggest one I've ever found easily had a leg span of 3 inches. I caught the thing and kept it as a pet for a few months. Cool animals.

On a similar note, as a kid, I was out hunting for salamanders in the woods one day. I went to flip over a rock and when I grabbed the edge of the rock, my finger was on a wolf spider with about a 1.5 inch legspan. Yep, fucker bit me. Very painful bite. Finger turned all kinds of black an purple. I lost feeling in that finger for about a week and a half. I don't reccomend anyone try it.

Wysefool: I did a short search, and your spider seems to be a Domestic Funnel Weaver, or similar species. It won't kill you if you're bitten. They're pretty timid anyway. I'm surprised that it would let you take a picture. Most of the time they dart back into their web when they see people.

Wyse: on second thought... Spray that fucker with Raid! I googled them some more. They can cause some really nasty symptoms if you are bitten by them. Symptoms like the bite wound turning red, swelling, blistering, blister popping and festering/leaking fluid. Nasty.

Go to this site, then scroll down to "Funnel-web Spiders (Family Agelenidae)"

Raid?!.
I, would collect the veenoms. Spider veenoms might have applicable war time characteristics, if applied in the 'end of the world' idea that is going around.
If all else fails, keep the spiders as pets, and use them in terrorism techniques, or set them loose in the caves in Iraq. Or promote them to guardians of a spot in the woods.
Feed them flies you catch around the house.
A spider could hypothetically spring onto Bin Laden's hoodie from across a cavern, with relative ease.
In fact, you could sell the spiders to the US military, to attach cameras to, to infiltrate even the strongest palisade.

Just for you eris...

Heres a pic of a wolf spider I took last year with my 8 megapixel camera:


I went out tonight to smoke a cigarette (still haven't quit) and I saw this female wolf spider with a back full of spiderlings(yes, thats the correct term). Since my 8mp cam is dead, I took them with my ancient 1.3mp cam:

maybe where you guys live, "wolf" spiders are a common everyday thing, but in california we dont get stuff like that. you guys are bad ass for being able to get close enough to one of those things to take a picture. i was high last night and went outside for a sec and saw a black widow and that freaked me out, i guess more because of how poisonous they are but  its still the biggest spider ive seen around here. any spider with more hair than your nut sack is far too demonic for my liking.

(anyone heard of smoking black widows and tripping out? :grin: i know its bs, but just wondering if thats a common conception at all)

They are good to eat bugs outside ,just not in my the house, I can stand some things like black bears,snakes,bees(I'm thanking about starting a Honey bee hive), and other bugs, but not spiders. A good spider in my house is a dead spider.
Have you evey been bitten by one? That would make you change your mind real fast.
