Spiders are awesome, I welcome all spiders who chose to live in my house.

The small ones eat fleas as well as other tiny pests.

To me spiders are not intruders, they are welcome tenants with benefits.

Ditto, except the brown recluses and black widows, which overrun this plae sometimes. But yeah, spiders are awesome.

That's how I think of jumping spiders. It's just the aggressive ones that bite, I cant have in my house because they're the size of my palm, and they bite me in awkward places and it gets really badly infected no matter what I do. Jumping spiders are cool though. I have about 5 small ones living in my office. They kill earwigs and flies. It's fun watching them jump on them, too.

I'm just plain obsessed/addicted to spiders I find and photograph them a lot. Jumping spiders and definitely a fave!

I LOVE jumping spiders!!!!!

They make me laugh, the ones we have here are about the size of a small pencil eraser, but they act like they're tarantulas

[RedSidedSPR]

That's why I love them.

Here's a question:

I used to hear about a creature called a "boa python". In fact, I just saw a video in which a snake enthusiast was showing off his Burmese along with what he called a "boa python."

Now, I may not be as knowledgeable as you professional herpers, but what reading I've done seems to indicate that boas and pythons are two entirely different taxonomies.

So, my question is, exactly what is a "boa python"?

[RedSidedSPR]

Doesnt exist.
