I've got about 30 of these things in my garage and they are driving me and my wife nuts. The're webs get all over everything in the garage and they are very hard to clean off. These are large spiders about 2" in length. There webs are really cool looking. They have a spiral hole that the spider hides in until it's prey lands on it's web.

You can spray, but you have to make contact with the spider. Just shoot a little down the hole.

They are common wolf spiders. Pretty harmless to humans but if the wife says they go, Raid has product to take care of that.

It's a common Grass Spider related to the Wolf Spider. Wolf Spiders are darker while Grass Spiders have those distinct bars on the thorax. Grass Spiders Wolf Spider

Why would you want to get rid of them? They are harmless to humans and they eat all sorts of pests, insects, and other spiders.

i would say this is why he wants to get rid of them........ seven dust kills pretty much everything. thats what i use and spiders are pretty common around my place.

I'd call it a dead spider! My wife hates spiders too.

They tend to freak out the wife if they get in the house and run across the floor!

We get those in our barns every summer. They wont mess with you most of the time, but Ive had a few get on my head and crawl down my face. Thats when I do the "get it off, get it off" dance.
We just let them be, they are great fly catchers. Creepy looking, but good at eating flies.
