I've heard there were big spiders...

Sometimes, you get more than you bargained for:

I found a great big black widow in my sprinkler valve box yesterday, does that count ?

 

[RogueJeepr]

Start spraying before they get bigger. I spray twice in the spring. We had a garden spider in our basement that was almost hand size. My cats wouldn't even mess with it .

I think garden spiders are cool... love the zig-zag up the middle of the web

How about I up the ick factor..

I found this on me night before last in the Milpitas Days-Inn



for those that don't recognize it, that is a bedbug.
For some reason I just couldn't bring myself to go back to bed.

I would burn down the building!!

I was cleaning shop yesterday and this little bastard sprinted across my body. I've never seen one before.

Any ideas what it is? It's pretty big for a Utah spider and very pissed off

....and this is why I prefer an RV. If I have an issue, at least it's MY issue

It seems to be missing a leg. Maybe from fighting?

Co-worker who stayed at the same hotel found this hitchhiker in his stuff



carpet beetle

They truly are a full service pest supply.

Not a spider but equally as terrifying or worse...

My kids and I were on a short hike today in Logan canyon and saw a freaking hornet (I think it was a hornet) with a body at least 2 maybe 2 1/2" long. It sounded like a humming bird as it circled around us.

I haven't seen many insects that large let alone a hornet.. Please tell me it was from outer space and there is only one

 

[RustEoldtrux]

Sounds like a Japanese hornet - those suckers get huge, and make hiking in the forests there a real adventure.

If we have Japanese hornets here, I'm moving.

I googled Japanese hornet and what I saw looks the same..


It was a Pokemon or something right?!


I'm never going outside again.

We just need to get you one of these on a leash.

Damn. If scorpions could fly I don't think humans would survive as a species...
