Any spider experts?
    #5680693 - 05/27/06 03:04 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Me and my roommate have a new friend in our smoking area. It's a huge spider with a strange funnely web! I was hoping maybe somebody in the pub could ID him/her so I know what to do about it.







Later we could collect it's veenoms.

you should put something in the camera view so we have a judge of the spider's size.

also, is it a funnel web spider? or are those only in australia?

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.

yeah a few times in my life. once on the hand, bruised up pretty good. But whatever. bees are gross though. wasps are anyway, got stung in the face as a kid, kinda makes me hate all small flying things.

don't kill it - bad karma. those spiders stay put that is why it is holed up in its web. Just chuck a fly at it every now and then and you will have the cheapest pet you could want.

Hey Gumby, how big is that wolf spider with all the babies?

I'm guessing the legspan was between 1.5-2 inches. A decent sized spider for these parts.

Fuck.  Spiders creep the hell out of me.  Now, I'm living in the high desert....Tarantulas.  They're fuckin' everywhere now.  I had one on my bed the other night...CRAWLING UP MY LEG!

I literally screamed like a girl and threw the covers off me.  Worst damn feeling ever. :frown:

I suppose as long as it isn't burrowing down into the nice moist bathroom on the other side of that wall I'm okay with it. We did mess with the web a bit hoping it might just leave but if it rebuilds I guess we'll just leave it and think of it your way, it has been an interesting pet so far... Too bad I'll never pet it.

I think the people upstairs might kill it soon anyways, they have a kid and they mentioned having somebody kill it when we showed it to them.

I couldn't live with that L2C! Even a tiny spider in my bed would scare the shit out of me, I'm lucky to never have had that experience. Once I had a wolf spider runnning circles around the couch across from me while I slept last night. I woke up trying to detect this faint movement but it took me like 5 minutes of it doing these circles around the couch (I wonder why? Up the back of the couch and then over the cushions and under it over and over.) to figure out it really was a huge spider! I ran into my room but for days I knew this spider was lurking until finally I caught it in the kitchen 2 days later and it met my foot. It even took two stomps because I think it flattened itself the second time I had to twist my foot and it's body wasn't even torn up at all! Spidercules.

I have the pleasure of living in a state that has both Black widows and Brown recluse.
The brown recluse like it a little dry. That's why they like to hide in closets and attics. They are all over the place here. I bet I could find 5 in 15 mins or less here in my own home. They are aggresive when cornered. I wouldn't want to hold one.
Black widows are fairly rare and pretty docile. I've picked them up with my hands to relocate them before. They like to find moist shady places outside and hang there.
One time a friend brought me a huge B. widow with an egg sack the size of a quarter. The eggs hatched before I got them into a proper container. I had thousands of baby black widows exscape into the house. I wasn't worried about them at all. I knew the brown recluse would eat them in a few days.

I've been getting bit a lot recently. I think they're under/inside of my bed. We have been known to have brown recluses here, but I think they're just young wolf spiders getting me...they have the stripe down the back as opposed to the hour glass/violin.

I came to the conclusion I shouldn't kill all spider based upon the spiders' actions of the past, they are all totally different species...yet it's so easy to kill them all.

I'd kill that mutha fucka or make it fight another spider. I know there's a few spiders in BC that we should definitely watch out for.

My dog kills spiders. Squashes them with his paws mang. I saw him fuckin around with a big brown spider once and it turned out that they can kill. At least that's what some self proclaimed spider expert said. I know some spiders can mess you up so I wouldn't take chances with that guy. I'm not able to id him from that pic, but I'm sure you could drag something off of google like everyone else. Yikes.

Spider fights are awesome. I see them all the time in autumn.
They start patting their abdomens against the floor, their front legs go up then they start to wrestle.

They usually end up rolling about trying to bite each other.

I don't know what kind it is, but it looks like it might kill us all. It's obviously the evil kind. I would call the alien exterminators in. I wouldn't risk jumping on it, or it might explode into deadly slime that will burn a hole in your shoe and floor.

Dude I used to fight spiders all the time when I was a kid. Then the surviving spider would go on to fight a scorpion.

Black Widows and Wolf Spiders were usually the winners.

10 ft away from our tent, we found a HUGE spider that made its home in the ground... it was big and hairy, my friend wanted to keep it as a pet. as we were packing up we found a giant wolf spider on our tent... so we put the 2 spiders together. the hairy spider bit the wolf spider, then proceeded to eat it!

I am a closet adrenaline junky.
Spiders are easy for me to deal with. I have a hard time understanding why they are feared by so many people. my first two pets were turantulas.
Handeling a black widow is easy after getting used to some of the other animals in my house.

Yes, they are my snakes. Posted are my albino Monocled cobra, albino Diamondback. I also have cottonmouths, massasugua, mohave desret rattlers, timbers,and pymgies.
The alligator is not mine. My gator is only 4.5 feet. I used to tell people it was dog tame, until I realized that every puppy I've ever played with chewed the hell out of me. My gator Boots, has never tried to bite.

The secret to avoiding the high medical bills is to not get bit. It's not a hobby for everyone. You have to have BIG BALLS or a little brain.
I think I have the big balls. I've kept hot snakes off and on for over 18 years without getting bit.

I've once heard that humans on average consume approximately
9 spiders per year, most of which enter your mouth while you
are asleep and you don't even notice that you've eaten them. 
Then again, this factoid did not necessarily originate from a
reliable source - still a thought that has stuck with me for
over six years :smirk:

Here's a nice juicy fatassed spider that crawled its way up
onto the base of my computer monitor back in 2003 when I
was living in Santa Cruz, California.  Now that I'm back in
southern California, I see all sorts of garden variety spiders,
coupled with the ocassional black widow that likes to chill in
the crawl spaces below the house. 



I've also been rudely awakened in the middle of the night,
walking to the front door of my mother's house in the foothills
right by a national forest at the northern end of the Los
Angeles basin.  There are these absolutely huge (seen one
with a solid 3" legspan) spiders that create new webs every
evening.  This is one spider you do not want to hit you in the
face - and I've had some chillingly close calls!  It may not be
poisonous, but it surely looks more intimidating than any of
the other spiders we have around here.  My friends and I
used to refer to them as "crab spiders" cause they look like a
crab so giant and fatty.. but upon reading about crab spiders,
it seems those are most certainly not what we'd seen since
they're too small.  I believe what I'm speaking about is a
Araneus Diadematus:

I was in my backyard once when I was a kid, poking at a hole in the fence with a stick, and a huge black widow jumped out and CHASED me all the way across the yard until I managed to close the sliding glass door behind me.

I refused to go outside for a day or two. I hate spiders.

I like spiders. The woman wants me to kill em inside the house but I just take em and throw them outside.

Here in arizona we have some pretty nasty looking spiders, and pretty large to.

I'e never seen wolf spiders that nest like tha tthough?

However, I have children and company over a lot so I dont tolerate black widows or recluse's if I see babies or egg sacs, then its time for them to go.

We've been keeping him as a pet, feeding him woodbugs (You can see he's biting one in the second pic) whenever we go outside and blowing him tokes. He's definately not very threatening, I've seen woodbugs escape even with him right there it's kind of funny. Just thought I'd give you all an update since the thread got bumped.

Here in arizona we have some pretty nasty looking spiders, and pretty large to.

I'e never seen wolf spiders that nest like tha tthough?

However, I have children and company over a lot so I dont tolerate black widows or recluse's if I see babies or egg sacs, then its time for them to go.




Lies, you eat them whole, especially the egg sacks. I've seen it. Devil worshiper!

You really should try frying them in butter & lemon pepper. Way better than eating 'em raw.

A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN







I'm so glad I live in Holland, where there are no poisonous or overly large spiders. I might one day have a pet tarantula, but the thought that you can encounter such things in your BED is too much for me.

If I lived in that desert area with lots of tarantulas I'd carry an air pistol for "close encounters". They have a purpose, but not roaming free in my house

If I were you I'd get rid of that spider before it lays eggs and you'll have dozens of these staring at you from every crevice and corner of your house.

In a terrarium? Sure! In the wild in my bedroom? NEVER

Poecilotheria Metallica also called the Blue Gootie is very real.
The price for one is unreal. around $375.00.

That's one beautiful spider!

In a terrarium, not if it tries to hide in your mouth when you wake up with fur in your face.

They're agressive as all hell too.

I've only ever kept Brachypelma tarantulas.

I thought about keeping a Bird Eater, but they're crazy agressive and can have up to one inch fangs. No thanks.

Gumby, If you get them small they can get used to being handled.
I have seen captive raised spiders between 6 and 10 inches being held like it was a Red knee.
I've held a 7 inch wild caught Goliath. Every time I tried to move toward it it would take a defensive stance with fangs out. I set my hand at one side of his cage then chased him onto my hand with a stick. Once I had it out of its cage i was able to hold it for a hour with no problems.
The only thing I don't like about large spiders is a defence tactic not mentioned in many books.
Projectile defecation.
I've seen 3inch pink toe spider blast a load of shit over a foot and a half.
I think even I would puke, if a spider shit in my eye.
