Field Notes

Description:

Large brown arachnid with white and black patterns.

Habitat:

Hot and dry found in backyard in northern most part of north las vegas Nv 89031 in a densely populated area in mid winter.

Notes:

Scary arachnid, they are fast and large; they tend to come out when it gets a bit cooler but not too cold. When you see one there are probably ten more around. I caught this one after it had drowned in my pool. CAUTION VERY CAUSTIC VENOM NOT ONLY IS IT PAINFUL BUT FLESH EATING AND THERE IS NO KNOWN CURE!!!
