What kind of spider is this? By wizardpc | September 2, 2013 4 Comments And is it going to kill me? There are probably a dozen of them hanging off my house right now.
James Cook September 2, 2013 Probably one of the spotted orbweavers. I have a few hanging around my porch and driveway. They are not dangerous, but make large webs. http://www.spiders.us/guide/species/neoscona-crucifera/ Reply ↓
Jennifer September 2, 2013 Yep. It’s one of the orbweavers and completely harmless. If it’s not in your way, leave it alone. It will eat lots of bugs. Reply ↓
Linoge September 3, 2013 Perhaps the only advantage the current house has over the old one – we have frogs, not spiders. Those guys probably just hatched recently. Reply ↓

My wife says kill it with fire.
