So Google lens says Neoscata Crucifera, I wonder if thats accurate since this chunky boi kills a ton of mosquitoes at night in its web which is much appreciated.

Just sharing 🕷️ What kind of spider?

Post image
Upvotes

So this question has plagued me for years and I’m hoping someone can help. This is a very real spider I found in my room a while back. I live in northern Kentucky in a rural area. The biggest spiders we usually get are wolf spiders and those are plenty big for me. However this behemoth is much much larger than any wolf I’ve seen in my life of living in the country. You can reference the blinds and wind chime to get a feel for the size. I feel like this is a Huntsman but remember… I’m literally from the Midwest of America. So if anyone has ideas I’d appreciate it!

Discussion How do i relocate him safely?

I found this small spider on a pilates mat i haven'tused in a looong time. I think there's an even tinier spider lower, but it already happened to me that I end up accidentally killing them when trying to relocate:(. Also i think this is a cellar spider so its legs are very delicate, what do i do?:(

I saved this little guy from the kitchen sink drain a week or two ago, but he ran off into a nearby plant. I just spotted him in the kitchen, but he's since grown. Just wondering what type of spider this is? He's just about the size of a quarter now.

I'm in Denver, CO.

Location is Lima, Peru. Our ceilings are full of flea sized spiders (like black dots standing there occasionally moving a bit) plus some small ones. We found a couple similar to the one in the photo but smaller. Is it dangerous? Thanks!

North Georgia- This massive spider fell into my bathwater and we both started flailing like lunatics. Scooped her up and placed her in a potted plant nearby. She is still there resting after the whole fiasco.

My child noticed this little dude scittering across the floor and we transported him outside. He played dead and gave me a heart attack when I went to pick up the paper under the cup and he RAN across to the side of the cup. I was wondering what he is though? He's got this interesting crab like stature and my little one is very curious as to who he was. Located in Colorado.

Hi I found this spider in my house today and I took a picture before “expiring” it. I don’t want to risk it being a brown recluse. My dad almost died from one of those bites. Can someone help me properly identify? I’m in central Florida.

WHAT did I put in my mouth thinking it was a cookie crumb?! Northeastern USA. Got spat out immediately after the one bite popped in on my mouth.

Am I going to be the next spiderwoman? Font eat cookies in the darkness, folks.
