No idea, but couldn't help but share this wonderful finding.

Wolf spider. And yeah, those are its babies.

From wikipedia:

Another aspect unique to wolf spiders is their method of care of young. Immediately after the spiderlings emerge from their protective silken case, they clamber up their mother's legs and crowd onto the dorsal side of her abdomen. The mother carries the spiderlings for several weeks before they are large enough to disperse and fend for themselves. No other spiders are currently known to carry their young on their backs for any period of time.

This is abject corruption. OP should be made to spend time in a small box with his new neighbor(s).

Kill it.

 

[Chubnasty]

Put a piece of known size next to it for reference

 

[sirap]

My little spider-chan can't be this cute

 

[JoeNut]

Kill it with fire immediately

 

[julia crawford]

What a cutie

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Growing up, I had a friend who lived out in the country. His basement always had these big mother fuckers running around. They are apparently pretty non-aggressive. So, think of them as your new bug hunting army.

 

[hombremalo]

Spiders are great for the ecosystem, imagine how many insects all those babys will eat in the future.

 

[Maxim726x]

are they her babies on her back

Yes, it's a wolf spider.

And she'll literally hurl the spiders at you in defense if she feels threatened. It's fucking gross.

 

[deltabreak]

I normally wouldn't kill a single spider but if I saw one carrying babies . . . you're getting the deodorant and lighter combo

Every time I do that she just grabs it off me and stuffs it in her nest. I'll try again later.

 

[Chubnasty]

As a single mom during this pandemic she's doing the best she can.

feed it pizza

 

[Walter White Walker]

Set it aflame.

Are these spiders likely to enter the house?

It's a life or death situation here (for her) so answer carefully.

wolf spiders go everywhere, they're nomadic. They don't build webs, so there is a good chance they'll stay outside and just hunt awful insects and shit. A wolf spider isn't bad to have around. They are attracted to warm spots, so they might come in during the winter or fall, but as summer is coming, they'll be more likely to be outside where more food is.

I saw a kind of legit cute spider on my laptop once. Spoiler cause bigvid

 

[coldsagging]

Wait they're the ONLY spiders to carry their young? That's pretty cool.

You're lucky. I found a couple redbacks under the veranda today.

OP, seriously don't kill that spider. It'll likely stay outside, meaning its babies will also be deposited outside. These are predators, they hunt insects, not just spin traps for them. That's hundreds of new creatures around your house actively hunting annoying shit like ants, flies, crickets, etc. It's legitimately great pest control. They aren't interested in you, they're interested in eating everything around your house that annoys you.

 

[FTF]

Burn your house and this thread down.

It's them or us.

Here's a pick of a wolf spider with her babies on her back.

I mean you are right, but this is still pretty fucked to clickbait people into this.
