Oh yeah, that's clearly from the Genus "SweetFuckingJesus" and the exact species is "KillitWithFire". I'm a big fan of live and let live, but spiders in my house are rewarded with hot death, just like any other unwelcome intruder.

Keep this up and you'll have zoologists hiring you to do detail photography of various species for identification purposes.

I wouldn't mind that. I improvised the studio from a paper plate and a sheet of typing paper.

Did you have a separate spider wrangler or did she do what you wanted to generally?

It's a Tennessee Poison Spit Spider. The only way to firmly establish its identity is to flip it over on its back to observe its navel. Poison Spit Spiders have blue navels. Of course the only was a Poison Spit Spider can spit is from on its back...
