this is fail, I don't like any bugs really but I hate Spiders worse. I can't think of a single bug a Spider eats where I wouldn't rather that bug eat the Spider instead.

Round hear Spiders seem to love eating flies, flies are super annoying but had a zero percent creep my out level. Lizards seem to like eating spiders.

Lizards > Spiders in my eyes.

But what happens if I end up with too many lizards? What do I buy to eat them? 😛

SKINNER- No problem. We simply unleash wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.

LISA - But aren't the snakes even worse?

SKINNER- Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.

LISA - But then we're stuck with gorillas!

SKINNER - No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
 
Be luckly your home isnt filled like mine is with fiddle back spiders 🙂
They pop when you squish em 😱
and are stupid fucks, getting stuck in tubs and sinks for they cant get out of them, and are helpless to my can o raid. I got a great natural eco system in my home. I got wasps, and fiddle backs and so far in the last 33 years can tell who is winning in the battle of which I have more of. So far this year Ive had 2 wasps, no spiders yet. And yeah yeah, y dont you move? Well it dont matter where you go, your gonna have something thats gonna kill you be in a bug, animal, or just slippin in the tub, and besides I aint going no where, dis in my house <pounds fist on chest like ape>. And they are not as bad as they are made out to be, for they dont tell you is you have to have an allergic reaction to the venom of the spider for it to do any damage, and here in the area there is a shot for it as long as you get it pretty quick after your bitten and dont wait, so I see no real need to move. I keep a can of raid in every room, and we dont care what it is, it moves or flies we spray at it.

Besides, as I been saying for years, there is no other place I know of in the united state where you can buy a home, in as great a place as the area I lie in you can move into a live in it or anywhere between $25K-$100K total for home and land depending on how big a home and land you want, so no spiders, wasps, snakes, NOTHING, is going to make me want to pack up and leave my home, I aint going NO WHERE.

Shameless show off of my new macro lens. 😀

spider is actually the size of a penny with it's legs

Awesome shot. Not to derail my own thread, but what lens was that with? I'm on the fence between a Canon 100mm and a Sigma (or was it Tamron?) 105mm.

Canon 100mm Macro. Great lens!


Here's a non-macro full resolution shot. Not a really great shot but more of a sharpness example.
