Alright contestants! Ten points to the first poster that can identify this here arachnid!!!!
I can't believe that, as far as we've come, arachnophobia is still alive and well in the 21st century!*Stomp*
Dead.

That was a veiled joke I made.Arachnophobia is alive and well in our house for most...just not me...I only kill spiders when I want rain, but I am not superstitious but that is for a different topic. They don't bother me...in my house, it is a female fear thing. All the females are a afraid of spiders including the female cat. The male cat is not afraid of anything that moves, if it moves it is a toy meant to be played with.
It helps to know your location in identifying a spider. It looks like a wharf spider. Is this spider associated with water? The species appears to be of the Dolomedes.
That is an impressive beast.
People should be nice to spiders, they are on your cleaning staff, reducing the number of germy insects in your house.
We have these enormous dock spiders where the females are larger than the males...these spiders are so large that they are the width of an 8inch board on our dock and their bodies are more than 3inches in length. The pictures I have tried to find just don't do justice to their size for the ones we have. They like to live on the floats under our dock. We never see more than two living there at a time...male and female. You never see them stray to far from the dock or from the water.
Capture it and post a picture online obviously.
how would you capture it?
