I'll have to dig that out. Big big big big big spider. Hobos have a nasty bite too. Least a Huntsman is rather docile :D

If you mean genus Tegenaria, yes, they actually have a somewhat medically interesting venom and can produce substantial local symptoms of envenomation.

Tanith are you sure it's not a common wolf spider?

They like the humid climates of the south (I'm from East TX originally), can grow to be the size of the palm of your hand and like to hide out in dark recesses.

FYI if that is what it is, they're harmless and eat the hell out of bugs. Leave'em be.

Okay yeah, it's a wolf spider. Note the dark color at the joints coupled with the dark color of the joints of the dead spider.
