As long as the spider is not deadly or seriously harmful, I have no problem with them. I find orb weavers pretty cool.

They are cute little buggars. Now that I know they are beneficial, I'll be glad to see on in my garage.

My barn is full of jumpers and funnel spiders, with the occasional huge wolf spider.

When I find the big wolfies in the house, I catch them and put them outside rather than mashing them. They eat a lot of other bugs.

Love the pics. I've got no issues with spiders, used to date a gal who had some tarantulas as pets. Most of them are good for us.

Pretty awesome pic- looks like a male. When I was in high school the bio teacher had a mated pair. The female would let you hold her, and moved relatively slowly. The male was extremely quick and had a habit of running suddenly and beating feet.

Definitely a male tarantula.(vinnybass pic)
Has the hooks on his legs for mating and is out looking for some poon.
He's also in his last molt, playing the last holes of the back 9.

Well you saved a spider today. Wife asked me to get rid of spider in foyer. Saw it was one of your jumping buddies and I shooed him out instead of crushing him. Hope you are happy.

Well done- might be the one that pulls a Riki-Tiki-Tavi and eats the brown recluse invading your home.
