This lovely lady and her family were on my front porch this morning. I thought I'd share.

Sorry for the flash, it was dark and that was the only way you could see her, uh... company.

7 legged spider - it's more likely than you think.

Nice picture, but come on, 1MB png for a photo?

Op here. Yeah, my Photoshop is really gay and won't save pictures small at ALL unless I really lower the quality.

It's either that or a problem with my camera.

OP here.

I guess I never realized they were wolf spiders. These assholes were all over my house when we moved here, and they're still rampant in our garage. Wikipedia says they aren't especially dangerous. But they're still HUGE and I don't like them at all.

Op here. I live in South Texas, just outside of Houston. So it's not like I live in the country or anything, I don't know why these guys are everywhere.

If you have eight, it's easy to snap one off and keep going.

Those are the most disgusting spiders ever! Looking at the babies crawling in the holes on her back make me sick to my stomach.

Found one of these fuckers in my bed a month or so ago, killed him and then slept on my couch that night.

I think this is kinda cool. I used to have a wolf spider that made a web-nest thing in my old room when I was a teenager. She lived there for a LONG time and I never knocked out her web. Oddly, I never got any spider bites. One day I found her dead. ;_;

Oddly? We have plenty of house spiders (Tegenaria domestica) about an inch in length in our home, and this has been the case for the last ten years. We commonly rescue them from places they can't get out of. When I was a kid, I used to catch wolf spiders in the yard with my bare hands. Yet never once have I been bitten by a spider.

theyre pretty tame from what ive noticed, although i got cocky after handling one and got bit by an orb weaver later that day.

Uh... Wut? How did that happen? I've handled hundreds of orb weavers and got bitten only once. And even that was totally my own fault, as I squeezed the spider.

The pedipalps reference reminded me of this song/video

I have these guys all over my house as well. Especially in the spring and summer. Ugh...

I know they're not mean, but they do make me nervous. I don't mind them being around so much, it's just that I'm worried I'll do something and scare one into jumping on me, or skittering over my feet.

I found one in my basement that was the size of my palm. I squished that sucker so damn fast. I've found a few in my bed before as well, and I'll be damned if that big one ended up in my bed as well.

I live in northern Indiana.
