Like a lot of 4channers, I live near Portland, Oregon. I found this near my back door today.

Does it bite?

yeah, but only if you pin it against your skin or something.

...But then again, if some random jerk came along and pressed ME against his/her skin, I'd probably bite too, if no other choices were available. And spiders don't know BJJ.

all spiders bite. each one has it's own personality though. you could have one of the most docile species of spider that is a mental case that strikes everything, or you could have one of the least friendly species that is a little puppy. all depends on how you approach it and the individual spiders temperament.

if it did bite you, it wouldn't hurt that much, and wouldn't be medically significant unless you had some sort of allergic reaction. not sure of the species..or even genus, but i don't know of any medically significant orbweavers.
