Obliging Tegenaria

Paul Iddon

The Giant house spider (Tegenaria gigantea) is the largest member of the Tegenaria genus and is a close relative of both the Domestic house spider and the infamous Hobo spider (never seen one though)>

This one was spotted by the Mrs on the side wall near the back door tonight, and it ran across the pebbledash on the house and looked at me menacingly...


C&C as always...
