OH MY GOODNESS! I should have NEVER opened this thread!!:eek:

I looked over the water spider site and I really do not think that is what it is. The water spiders look to be slimmer and have longer skinny legs....this one wasn't that way.

I am getting ready to look up wolf spiders.

Seeing as you posted a picture of the top and of the bottom of it, I'm assuming you turned it over, yes? LOL!!! That is very brave!:D

But I'll take spiders over Roaches or huge grasshoppers anyday!!

YUCK! I hate roaches too!!! I don't know which I hate worse......they are both disgusting! Ha!

Trying to figure out what spider it was.....still no luck.......

Here are some pictures of ones I have found online.....

These two are Wolf Spiders
(I don't think they look like mine at all)

AURGH.....I just don't know!

Ha! I really DON'T!!!!
I just want to make sure it isn't anything bad!! I just hate finding something and NOT knowing what it is!

I have been looking online and I swear, I feel things crawling on me!!:eek:
YUCK YUCK YUCK!!!

I am not sure what my husband uses...I will find out though. It is something he gets at the local co-op (farm) store and he mixes it into a pump sprayer thing. He sprays around the house and yard (not inside). The spray is pretty potent, it kills spiders, ticks/fleas, scropions, etc.
We don't let the dogs outside for a day or two after he sprays.

Mojo and Lily aren't really into eating or getting things like that.......as far as I know. Thank goodness!!!

For inside, we do the foggers every four months or so. We live in the country but I don't have an indoor bug problem....and I want to keep it that way! We move out the dishes and food and dog stuff. We will also leave for the weekend so the foggers can really do their work. When we get home, I will clean my room....sheets, sweep, etc and let the dogs in there. Wash all the dogs, linens, sweep floors, bring in everything...before they can roam the house. We have done this since we built this house (before Mojo came along) and have never had a problem.

The foggers are said to be really safe for animals and humans, and you don't need to re-wash everything, sweep, etc...but I do.....just so I feel better!!

Hi Lori!
Thanks for helping! Ha!
I looked at that one too, but it said that they are commonly mistaken...I think the hobo is dangerous, isn't it?? I can't remember, but I think I weeded that one out!

How was your weekend and how did little miss cutie-patootie feel and do this weekend??

You know what.......the more I look at it, the more it looks like mine!

I am going to do more research on it!

THANKS LORI!!! :thumbup:
