good thing i work in pest control...I still dont know what either of the two spiders are though. What I do know is, I have a can of chemical that shoots 15 feet of petroleum distillate. makes for quite a nifty flame thrower way more powerful than a can of WD-40 or RAID lol
Just did a decent sweep of the house and didn't find it. Just going to be keeping an eye out for this thing and let everyone else who lives here know about this beast. I did look online and this spider doesn't show any of the typical signs of a venomous/dangerous spider. However, I did read that spiders don't always have signs of being dangerous like snakes do. There was spider I found on a site that it looked familiar to which isn't dangerous, but I'm not assuming a damn thing till I know for sure.
Knew I should've smashed it before I left

Brown Recluses don't look that scary either... yet that poison is absolutely HORRIFIC. Anything with NECROSIS in the poison has to be one of the absolute nastiest things evar =P

I don't like spiders. that one, i don't like either. looks like it'll burrow into your skin, after biting you...
but i'm still scurred of the kuma-osama (spider king) that freaked me the hell out when i was in Japan.
Alright, still, with legs, it was the size of the palm of my hand. f***er followed me in the house! I was like WTF?!?! took my mom-in-law to scare that f***er out back into the yard LOL I was screaming and jumping like a little b***h.

Did some more research and I'm pretty sure its a Orb weavers/Garden Spider. Would prefer if this thing was dead or not around, but I'm more relieved its not poisonous or deadly.

Orbweavers are crazy looking, but totally harmless.
In the bay area, if it doesn't look like a black widow or brown recluse, it's most likely not poisonous.
