This is a spider I just saw running across my floor. Luckily I managed to catch him before he crawled all over my face while I slept. Scary thing is, I caught an identical looking spider about a week ago before setting him free at the end of my garden. Somehow he has managed to find his way back into my room...

I think that's a Brown Recluse Spider

If that thing would have bitten you, you'd be FUCKED UP..the venom in that thing eats your flesh.

Kill it with fire immediately and post pictures!

I think I remember something about a violin pattern on the back of a brown reculse, so I don't think this is one.

Awesome joke

>>191087

Epic fail for getting duped by joke.

Seriously though, BRs only live in california, they run away more than thay bite, and they have extremely weak venom.

It's really not possible to identify a spider properly without a microscope. In your home there may be 30 species sneaking around, most of them looking identical except for slightly different mouthparts or some small detail like that. Not only that, most of them are exclusively indoor spiders, and wouldn't fare well in the wild. They are virtually unable to crawl onto someone's bed, much less get under the covers. Not only that, the description "violin-shaped mark on its back" fits hundreds of species, dozens of which likely live in your area.

It is not a Brown Recluse. It is probably some variety of House Spider. It could possibly be a Hobo Spider, but I doubt it. To tell for sure, I would need a clear picture of the spider's belly. House spiders and Hobo spiders look very similar, but the markings on the belly tell them apart.

BR's dont only live in fucking Cali, However that is not a BR, BR's are much smaller and live in dark and warm places, such as shoes etc.. Just kill the spider, they suck.

Google called; Google misses you all!

"Where do brown recluse spiders live?
Spider experts across the state agree that the true brown recluse spider does NOT live in California, but is native to Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma and Mississippi. There are some related species found in California. The Loxosceles laeta, imported from South America, has been found in eastern Los Angeles County. The Loxosceles deserta is found in the Mojave and Sonoran deserts, the foothills of the Central Valley up to Merced and Fresno counties, but not in Northern California.

In any case, the brown recluse is called a "recluse" because it hides and is not commonly found out in the open. The brown recluse will hide in dark, quiet, out-of-the-way areas where it will not easily be disturbed."

Brown recluses are also in Colorado. I find them every once in a while moving boards or other junk outside.

Oh my goodin' frickness, remind me never to go to Colorado; the spiders must be HUGE there to be able to move boards and other junk outside.

ok, forget the microwave idea. here's what you need to do.

1. obtain cigarettes/cigar
2. light one up and start smoking
3. blow a big puff of smoke into the upturned glass while the spider is trapped under it.
4. spider dies
5. ???
6. profit

Good picture. House spiders are differentiated from Hobo spiders by the spots on their sternum highlighted by the green dots. What you have there is a Giant house spider. See wiki for more info.

I woke up to a small spider crawling on me this morning. I tried to trap it in a napkin but it got loose and scurried off somewhere on the carpet. Took me a long time to get back to sleep cuz everytime I felt slightly itchy I kept thinking it was a bug or spider...

1) Keep it around. Feed it bugs, letting it think it might have a chance of living.

2) Wait a few hours then have a thread on /b/ asking the best way to kill it.

3) Film the killing.

4) Rapid shit it.

5) ??????

6) PROFIT.

you are an IDIOT. BRs live all over the place. they are a really pain in the ass here in TN. and their venom does cause severe tissue damage after a number of days if you go untreated.

I once caught a centipede in a CD spindle in my basement, took me awhile to figure out something to do with it. Eventually I turned on my space heater and aimed it at the fucker, he curled up and burned within seconds.

alright guys, im here to stand up for the little guy.

Brown recluses are very social creatures who liv in large colonies of around 30-70 depending on the size of the location. Brown recluses are not bite happy animals, in fact they are extremely gentle adn bites are very very rare. yes, the bite can be bad, but its nowhere near the worst spider venom in the world. just ask these guys:
