Similar species, and just as dangerous:

The Tarantula is rather large and hairy, while the Recluse is much smaller, and the Black Widow even smaller.

I personally love arachnids! I used to have a pet scorpion called Stan. He was lovely. My sister killed him by stabbing him with a pencil... our relationship has deteriorated since this point!
In Australia as a kid we had to deal with these beauties http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_funnel-web_spider
Personally I'd love a pet one of these http://www.camelspiders.net/

I never used to mind them... As a young child we kept some as pets  Grin  But nowadays, anything larger than a money spider is just horrific for me to look at.

A couple of years ago there was a spider terrorising the class during and English lesson. Most of the girls were squealing, but then one got out of her chair, walked up, grabbed the spider (not a tiny one, either!) and then threw it out of the first floor window... I guess that's one way to do it  Grin

i had one in my hair once and it dropped down infront of my eyes.

Its a fact that all the time we are wandering around, we are constantly wading through invisible Spiders Webs.
Early in the mornings I can feel them brushing against my face as I go outside!
The sight of them is amazing to see on a cold, Frosty morning!

Wonderful constructions...Clever Spiders!

Paul...Spider Man... Cool...!

Yes, nothing quite like the great British countryside.

I walked through a spider's web once... The damn spider was stuck to my chest... It was a big, poisonously coloured, effer too!
