Re: Arthropoda
Fritz,

That one was in the foundation crawlspace area.

Jerry,

I have heard that the brown recluse is not present in my area. However, I was also told that the "killer" bee would never get to the U.S. In the area of arachnids, I can identify a black widow and that is about it.

Rick,

Thanks for the info. It was useful reading. I did not get close enough to count the number of eyes.
I typically don't worry about the black widow. I see them regularly and work hard to avoid them. I did have one crawl on me and she did not bite me. Of course, I really didn't give her enough time. She probably went deaf from my high pitched, girl-like scream.
