cvfd1399 0 #1 June 27, 2005 So I was in the firestation about to go to bed the other night, and there was a brown spider sneaking around the bedroom floor. I grabbed a shoe and gave him a light tap to keep from smearing him into the carpet, but hard enough to kill him. Well I found out that HE was a SHE and when I squashed her about what seemed like a million baby spiders exited what my opinion would be the "ass" and started to spread out in the bedroom like spilled water! All that was missing was the lights flashing and a scary screeching sound and you would have yourself a class A scene in a inscet horror movie. After I covered the floor in Lysol and vaccumed about a thousand times I looked up the brand of spider and found it to be a Wolf spider that carries it's babies in it's "spider ass" I could live without them for sure see the pic.....

cvfd1399 0 #4 June 27, 2005 I slept with 2 blankets wrapped around me like a mummy. There is no doubt that I missed killing a hundred of them right next to my bed. I know one of the fuckers made it up in my bed that night.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyangel2 2 #15 June 28, 2005 Well on my last visit to Texas, after I got home and a few days later while unpacking, this is what I found in my suitcase Sure makes me re-think unpacking as soon as I get home, rather then letting the suitcase sit there at the foot of my bed.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't stand spider guts so I always go with the flush 'em technique. You avoid the baby spiders that way also. __________________________________________________ "If happy little bluebirds fly above the rainbow, why oh why can't I?"

swedishcelt 0 #22 June 28, 2005 I got bit by one on my wrist while at work this year in April. It got infected. I had to have 2 stitches when the Dr. cleaned it out. The only thing he can figure is it was a spider bite and I didn't notice. Creepy biting little fn bastards. I hate spiders and squirrels now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #23 June 28, 2005 www.camelspiders.net/spiderpictures.htm I saw one of these for the first time this morning. I was sitting in the dirt waiting on the trucks to show back up and I saw the nasty little SOB crawling along. Looked exactly like the pic on the upper right of that page. He wasn't big by any means. The legs and all covered maybe a 3-4 in circle. I guess they get MUCH bigger. I didn't kill it since it was pretty much just out in a field. Disgusting things they are. As for wolf spiders..........They are NASTY creatures but are harmless to humans and do us a favor by eating LOTS of bugs. I don't like spiders much but I try to leave them alone if they leave me alone. And here's some info to debunk a lot of the myths about camel spiders. Apparently, it's a good thing that I left him alone. www.snopes.com/photos/bugs/camelspider.asp#add Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cvfd1399 0 #24 June 28, 2005 QuoteCamel spiders can traverse desert sand at speeds up to 25 MPH, making screaming noises as they run. Camel spiders can jump several feet in the air. OH HELL NO! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #25 June 28, 2005 Read on down...........it says NO WAY can they go 25MPH. The article says a max of 10MPH. Which is STILL pretty fast and they only grow to a max of 6 in. leg span which is STILL a pretty big creepy crawly. However..........they are not venomous and mostly eat other insects..............and maybe mice and small birds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
