WTF is this spider?

[SAnd]

I can't get the idea of the swamp cooler spreading eggs throughout the house out of my head.

Thanks. I really needed that image floating around in my head.

Camel spider as far as I can tell.

Sun spider, or they get called potato bugs locally.

It was alive and pretty aggressive before I squished it with the pliers I had.

Told ya', dead spider. They're my favorite kind.

these shitheads can keep up with that... running towards your shoe, across your bed covers, or even up your pantleg, demonstrating to your spouse the octaves your grunting-screamy voice can truly hit.

Ahhhh, now I feel much better.

"Wind scorpions" is the proper designation, or "tailless scorpions" is another common name.

They have no poison, strongest mechanical bite of an insect though. What makes them freakishly scary is that they resemble a scorpion in appearance but run at 11-12mph. To put that in perspective, if you turn the treadmill in a gym up to it's fastest possible speed, that is usually 12mph, and these shitheads can keep up with that... running towards your shoe, across your bed covers, or even up your pantleg, demonstrating to your spouse the octaves your grunting-screamy voice can truly hit. (they are not any danger to us though)

And it prolly spread eggs all over his house hanging out in that cooler pad huh.....

Many a horror story of the big ones in the middle east I've heard .mil people tell. Some fake of course , but I've seen enough video's to know fucking nope nope nope.


Too bad you couldnt have captured alive, I'd have paid for it.

Your post sends a dichotomous message.

They can lay a LOT of eggs. Hundreds of thousands. They'll float on the air until they settle...like in the sheets.

So you would breath them in too? After they hatch they probably only crawl out when you're sleeping though, right?
