What you doing with the wood

Have found a few around my house the last week or two,my son spotted one at the front door which I quickly disposed of by squashing it flat with my finger,the other one at the garage tilter door inwhich i burnt to a crisp with a blow torch,another next to the rubbish bin which I squashed and was lying beside working on a car and the other day when tinkering in the garage I spotted one on the spare patrol diffs,but the bastard was to fast and i missed my opportunity to kill it,had some industrial insect killer lying around and sprayed the diffs and surrounding area until saturated.

Heating a house. I rent a house with a 1970's forced air heater and stupid ducting that sucks down the propane but it also has a huge stone wall and mantel with a gigantic Fisher Wood Stove that cooks.....when you put wood in it. Since I had 7 screws implanted in my shoulder and a bi-cep reattachment, this is the first time I could do such work and fall is coming. This took some literal leverage one armed more or less and I have another batch waiting!

With your finger? Would if the bugger was spry and did a 180* and bit your arm off? You guys are tough. Oh, and Ferdy....be careful with industrial bug spray....it dissolves axels and differential parts from what a friend of my neighbors cousin told my dog!

Great shot with the logs loaded up. My daughter loved to photo of the spider too!
