Re: Spiders
Well get this, my wife is a fanitic about animals bugs spiders and so on. If she finds eggs on a leaf she will put them into a jar to see them hatch to see what they are. She found a black widow and put it in a jar and kept it on the kitchen counter to watch it. Then she found a recluse and put it in there with the widow and recluse lived and the widow bit the dust we were shocked then she found another widow and the recluse bit the dust. and the widow must of been a female. Had hundreds of babys in the jar. Put it in the freezer for about 6 hours pulled it out warmed up and yes still alive. but they didnt survive a couple of days in the freezer. Yes my wife is crazy!!!!

Her curiosity and compassion for life's wonders is the very reason we have top- notch scientists. I would imagine that her curiosity extends beyond bugs and her ways were why you and she connected. You're a lucky man to have found such a gifted mate. Quote:
The very reason we have cobwebs in the corners of our ceilings. Never messed with them to the point of getting bit. They get indoor bugs so I leave them alone. (Except for a couple time a year when I annihilate them with the broom!!) :sumo: |
Re: Spiders
saw this on the driveway this afternoon.
for those unfamiliar that is a spider wasp. not sure of the exact breed. looks a lot like a tarantula hawk, but it is smaller than most. the last one of those i saw was about 2 inches long. this one is maybe 1. they sting the spider causing temporary paralysis. then they lay an egg over the stinger hole. when the little bug hatches it migrates into the spiders abdomen and starts eating the least important parts first leaving the spider alive as long as possible. when the wasp pupates, out it comes and dead goes Mr. tarantula. sweet huh? http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...ps50c3a784.jpg |

Re: Spiders
I find it very sad that so many grown men are scared of something so tiny as a spider.

Re: Spiders
gross those things are in CO too. My land searches are starting to go badly. 10 hours max drive from LA is my (wifes) limit. That basically puts me in rattlesnake and scorpion and tarantula areas in all directions except due north.
Hmm do those wasps sting people. can I start a tarantula wasp farm to protect my property? lol Is there something similar for the bark scorpion. |

Re: Spiders
I know this is an old thread but does anyone have any more information on getting rid of the brown recluse?I have two old vehicles infested with them.I have been using the sticky traps for the last three months.Some would say to use the foggers.Not a good idea.From what I have read they will just flee to another area like your house.
