I am so very blessed
I had a spider like that last fall on my night stand. I swear the thing was as big as a Frisbee. It freaked the bejeezus out of me.

I always called them garden spiders... there was a HUGE/FAT one in the house this weekend and there were people over and everyone was afraid to get it so I called them a bunch of Ninnies... and went to get it and when I scooped it into the jar about 50+ little babies were running out of her and all over the place. :ohwell:

Well after everyone screaming about this spider, I got accused of being insensitive to it while it was giving birth and I "separated her from her babies" :rolleyes: I just didn't want the dog or cats getting to it and put it outside. :ohwell:

I didn't know what was going on at first, I just saw all these baby bugs running around all over the place. :barf:

Calvert Newbie is right. It is a Wolf spider.

Check out this link for spiders in Maryland from UMD.

I love what they have to say in the last line for the Wolf Spider....

"Exclusion is the best way to keep them outdoors". :confused:

Translated: "Keeping them out of the house, is the best way to keep them out of the house". Thanks for that bit of insightful knowledge.

:whistle:

For entertainment WWF style, put two of them in the same jar. Better yet, find a Black Widow and put it in the same jar as the wolf spider. :yay: good stuff! Definitely post-worthy material! :biggrin:
