"shivers" at the thought of wolf spiders!
When I'm home in the states for vacation I stay in my parents basement and although its nicely redone, the wolf spiders still love to parade around.
Now I have to think about them with worms inside of em! GROSS!

Only thing I don't like about them is they are always on the floor, gettin into your shoes One night when I was drunk, I let one loose on my arm, didn't bite me, they are pretty placid really. I think their size and their speed are a bit intimidating though. As for the one below, I don't think so.

Thats the Mouse Spider I'm pretty sure.
But thats not the most common, not where I live anyway. The first one here is a NSW cult figure and the second most venomous in the world I think.
Funnel Web Spider
The white tail has copped the blame for a lot of bites which result in the skin rotten around the bite. This spider is quick and is always found in the household. Some grow up to the length of a matchstick but some also say the babies are the most venomous
White Tail Spider
And heres some humour..
