Remember spider-bro? allison-beriyani.deviantart.co… for those of you that don't.

He moved outside for most of the summer, but rain has finally come to the front range, and he has returned along with his older bro, GIGANTOR, THE BIGGEST GODDAMN SPIDER EVER.
I'm not joking, Spider-bro's brother Gigantor has an inch-long body and legs that stretch another two.  I can hear him walking across the carpet through my headphones.
(Gigantor is obviously just a VERY well-fed garden spider, and is quite harmless to me.  You can stop panicking now.)

While spider-bro favors the build-a-giant-ass-web-to-catch-all-mosquitoes-hunting-technique, Gigantor just doesn't give a shit, and takes what he wants, often directly out of the air.
Seriously, I watched him pull a giant miller moth out of the air from my bookcase, and flip my bathroom rug to get at the silverfish.
He's gone to loudly patter across the house in search of more tasty invertebrates or unfortunate mice (seriously, I think he outweighs them), so I don't know where he is to photograph him.  I'll just have to wait and listen for the sound of him thundering across the carpet again.

Meanwhile, spider-bro continues to build his giant ceiling-spanning web, though mosquito season is pretty much over here.  He'll probably pick off the Indian Moths that have migrated in with him though.
I will re-locate him to the spider plants downstairs tomorrow so he can winter on the mites that live there.
That is assuming Gigantor hasn't trampled them.

I love spiders.... When they're not dangling on their webs in front of my face while I'm in a car, that is. I remember once my mother and I found a big black one and she poked it with a twig just to see what would happen - the thing grabbed the twig away from her xD
I meant to ask, around where do you live? Just curious.
