    Brown recluse made a web inside out pen holder. Just let the little fella outside so he continue on.

    ARE YOU INSANE MAN!!!? Oh my, it's almost as bad as seeing that wolf spider yesterday!
    There was a minor panic in the c-a-s-a; he was fine. Just emptied the pens, took him out, let him loose. . . . .for THEBIRDS!

    I'm going to have to reconsider you sir.

    I too, am skeptical. For future reference, appropriate interventions include:

    Completing smothering said spider under ones shoe
    Suffocating said spider in ones freezer, sealed
    Flushing said spider down the toilet. Always flush at least three times.

    Who am I kidding? I'd get out the flame thrower.

    I like setting the cat upon them. Assuming non-venomous brand.

    It is my understanding that cats are immune to some of the types of venom. I think it's the necrotic type, like hobos (well, their venom is under debate) and such.

    I started out college as a biology major, and one of the few things I remember from that (lol) was learning that most spiders operate their legs via hydraulics rather than musculature and that they use the same fluid for said hydraulics and circulatory system. So if you make them run enough, their poor little hearts don't get enough "blood" and they die of a heart attack.

    Having needed three days of one hour treatments of intravenous antibiotics after a brown recluse spider bite did not respond to oral antibiotics, should I ever see one of those again, he's not being saved for the birds.

    Pro tip - don't google image "brown recluse spider bite progression" while eating.

    Relax there. Wolf spiders are harmless and pretty neat to watch.

    They may not be aggressive, but anything that looks like that and can bite me and is poisonous? Big fat furry NOPE.

    Wolf spiders are not venomous.

    As to them being poisonous I assume you don't intend to eat one.

    Are we talking about different spiders? Because everything I'm reading says they're venemous.
