Romeo Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 It's a false widow. I think they arrived from canary isles. Meant to give a nasty bite. I've been finding them everywhere, in the house and shed. They don't seem to mind making a home anywhere, in between cushions, in my garden gloves, in the hair of my daughter's cabbage patch doll. I don't really kill creatures on purpose but these and slugs go straight to hell without passing go. A false widow?Sorry I asked.Anyone want to buy a house? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you know, you can always just leave that spider in there. Hope it doesnt seek the nearest warm place to nest and have babies as the nights begin to draw in. I mean, maybe it wont come for you while you sleep. Sometimes nature can surprise us. Maybe you have the only false widow spider that doesnt want to slam its fangs into your neck and drink your blood. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 If you're interested in U.S. involvement in the middle East / Afghanistan / since the end of WW2 and the long-term effects of same, have a watch of a couple of Adam Curtis' documentaries. 1. Bitter Lake 2. Hypernormalisation Both were available on iPlayer last time I watched them. Alternatively YouTube.Will give them a search it's how much they seem to be involved in most conflicts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alert Mongoose Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Those are both common house spiders (female). Nothing to worry about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
