Female Darwin's Bark Spider

 

Despite being no larger than 4cm, the female Darwin's Bark Spider can create a web bridge spanning up to 75 feet across rivers by releasing several strands of silk which the wind carries to the other side. She then reinforces it, allowing her to hunt for insects flying over the river.

I don'[t know about the rest of you, but I'm only counting  6 legs, possibly 7.  But as long as she picks on insects and not humans, her scary look won't bother me.

I went into my kitchen to get something to drink. Unfortunately, upon the wall by the refrigerator a tiny, medium sized, gargantuan black spider was crawling DOWN the wall (headfirst) thereby defying gravity... I think. It should have been falling! I didn't want to kill it (I didn't!) but I had to. It was in my home!!!

But... but... if the spider is just sucked up and put into a bag... won't it just crawl back out again?

Yes  

…after you’ve tipped the bag into next door’s garden
