I love banana spiders i always get them... this one always build a web from my front door railing to a windowsill on the 2nd floor. I watch them get bigger>> and bigger>> and bigger. its awesome watching them grow. its like watching a plant. they never bother me they just sit on their giant 12foot webs and kill all the pest in my garden

Oh and their webs are strong as hell.. look this one caught a bird.

They are cool from a distance, however having ones web all wrapped around your head (with him in there somewhere) is a bit disconcerting.
The previously coined term "Pussy Dance" comes to mind.

Like I said, I usually catch and release spiders in my house. If that fkr was on my house, I'd shoot it.

.. so, we just got a puppy a few weeks ago.. she's been sleeping all day and has been good as gold, then she woke up and i took her outside so she could do her thing and i was going to finish off the rest of my phatty from the other day, and fuck around in the yard..
the last few nights have been getting down in the low 40s, so i was trying to get everything i could out of my veggy garden before it freezes... i've had these two huge cabbages growing all summer, and i thought it was best to pull at least the larger of the two and bring it in..
i get in the crib, over to the sink with my fresh take of goodies, and i think to myself i better wash these off pretty good before i'm doing anything else.. i start to rip older outside cabbage leaves off, running the water over them, when i look down and i see this big ass spider running around under the cabbage and in my sink.. i move the shit over trying to find the fucker, and what do i find but another one hiding under the strainer thingy..
fuck, now i've tried to live life by the mantra of live and let live, and i really tried to corral the fuckers up on a big ass piece of cabbage leaf before they totally freaked my ass out and i gave it to them.. i drowned the one with the hose attachment to the sink, and i'm hoping i washed the other one down the drain, as i think that is where i watched him go, dead or not, who knows at this point..
like i said, this is kinda bothering me now knowing as how many fucking mosquitoes and bugs we've had all summer, and here i am killing two of their fiercest rivals.. damn karma points aren't in my favor now, lol.. maybe if i weren't so stoned and the things really managed to freak me out as they were bigger than say the daddy long legs that are super common around here, and i admit, i was scurred damn it, lol..
Think of it this way bro. If that spider was big enough to eat you it would.

When I was little I would always throw grasshoppers in their web and they would spin their web around them in less than 3 seconds. Pretty crazy, I love their colors too.

I used to do a lot of back country fishing in the Everglades & when you're in a narrow creek in a canoe (front of course), blasting through one of those things in the dark is a psychiatrist visit in the making. The web is bad enough, but knowing that there is a giant freakin spider on you somewhere. :o

Try growing around Okeechobee...you'll lose a limb if not careful...gators.
