How you know it is time to MOVE!

WARNING: Graphic pictures, arachnophobic readers should only read with caution!







Andrew was harvesting tomatoes today and he found a HUGE spider on a leaf. He had to go and get the sticky paper spider trap from the shed to "catch" it and found an even BIGGER one on there that was still alive. We live next to a tree-filled green space and we constantly find spiders. Like the time I turned the blankets down to get in bed and a gigantic spider came crawling out from between the sheet and the blanket. I had a hard time sleeping that night... Anyways, I have decided that it is time to move to a spider free zone: any suggestions?
(SICK!)
See that big'un? That there is a full grown hobo spider.

We think this one is a grass spider.
I can't take it people...I am fa-reeeking out here!!!!!

Oh...I am covered head to toe in goose bumps now. EEK!! I hate spiders. I am always paranoid about them being in my bed. It creeps me out that you had one in there. I totally would have stripped the bed down to nothing and still would have had a hard time sleeping. EWWWW!!!!!

I thought my house had hobo's in it thanks to your picture, I know I don't have them! yeah go me! but I am sorry for you. I have a good exterminator out here though because we do spray for spiders every 2 months. Would you like his phone number?
