Newest Climate Change Danger: GIANT SPIDERS


Climate Change Moonbats

What won't the leftwing moonbats blame on global warming?



I guess there could be some truth to this latest claim, I saw this one on the side of a house in Raleigh.

ah yes, working with jpgs.

If something like that actually existed... Jumping Jesus Christ I'd move.

The spider that has been altered in that photo is a wolf spider.

Harmless in real life.

Anything with 8 legs is enough to get me to move rather quickly.

A wolf spider can bit and leave a nasty mark.

A friend of mine was just bitten by one last week.

I have always been told they have to be continuously provoked. Sounds painful. Hope it heals.

I got bit by a fiddle back last year and the bite area became the size of a nickel. It too 6 months to heal. Had it been a worse bite, they would have to had cut the infected area out.

I thought this thread was going to be about this

I showed that to my cousin and she is doing that with her dog this Halloween.

I don't kill spiders. In fact, I don't kill anything. If I see a spider I either catch him and release it outside or do nothing with the thought that it's killing the stuff I really don't want around and if that stuff wasn't there then the spider wouldn't be there either.

That makes two of us. I'll take bugs outside and release.

I have a similar philosophy, except it is in zones and depends on how dangerous the threat is.

Normal bugs, spiders, lizards, non-poisonous snakes, etc. get a pass. If they are in the house they get moved outside.

Poisonous spiders outside the house get caught in a cup and moved to the woods behind my house.

Poisonous snakes in my yard die. I have pets and the neighbors have small kids.

Poisonous snakes I encounter outside my yard get a wide berth.

I have a wife, no creature is allowed to live in our home.

This reminds me of the time I was in Iraq and one of our buddies decide to catch a camel spider and keep it as a pet in our "hutch." The spider was small and we didn't mind, since it didn't seem like a threat to us at that time. A few months passed by and I had night watch, so I was sleeping during the day, and he is waking everybody up because the spider had just escaped. I swear, we moved everything out of the hutch, took us a few hours. We never found the spider, and I am glad we didn't. Man, the fun times in Iraq.

This is my philosophy on spiders in my house or yard for that matter. I won't bother them anywhere else but my domain is my domain and if they trespass, they're good as dead. Some garden spiders "might" get a pass Any black widows, centipedes or brown recluses will enter the hereafter.

Looks like a Halloween decoration.

Though those 1950s movies said giant spiders came from atomic testing.
