| I am deathly afraid of Spiders, yet I found myself looking? Why? That's just gross. Good thing it's outside, but if it were inside I would go to bed and tell my DH to find it and kill it when he comes home from work. He works night hours and usually comes home at 3:30 a.m. |

| Ok that is GROSS and SCARY! I looked it up online, and it says the body of that thing can get up to 1-1/8" long! It can make webs up to 2' in diameter! Maybe it could catch a yorkie?! EWWW The closest thing I've seen like that is when I lived in Minneapolis...it's called a wolf spider...yuck yuck icky! Ok, and while I'm typing this, and looking at creepy spider pictures, Milli decided to jump up on the couch, and lean over and tickly my elbow with her beard, and I FREAKED! I jumped like 6 feet in the air and let out a "Eguguhgtgutuaahh!" Here's a pic of one I found online, for those of you that want to look:

| Tiffany, Beautiful picture, thanks for sharing. We have them up here also. She should make her egg sack soon, it might be on a nearby bush.

| That looks like the one we have on our back deck. The web is almost like a zig zag zipper. I hate spiders indoors; can tolerate them outside. We have some doozies here in VA. |

| I dont' hate spiders; other than the bad ones..and I don't like them making spiderwebs all over, but that one LOOKS kinda scary to me! Nowhere nearly as creepy as the cane spiders my dad has in Hawaii though (which I will not post a picture of out of respect for all those who hate spideys).

| I hate spiders so much I kill them even if they are outside. I didn't give it permission to be on my property, so out comes the bug spray. If one happens to get inside, I have to get it before Emmy does. Anyone else get scorpions? |

| About 8 weeks ago we moved into the new house. I was laying on my bed for the first time....covered with a blanket. I had been there for aobut 45 minutes when I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. It was a scorpion. I SCREAMED for Richard to come get it. Talk about freaking out We haven't seen any others and he has bug bombed the whole house, including the attics. We haven't seen anymore. |

| We do....but I've only seen one in the 7 years that we've lived here; it may have been from the storage facility where we had our belongings stored for a little over a year, but it didnt' matter to me; I squashed that sucker and called the pest control people immediately!
