Nutritious or no, if I saw that at a picnic the scream would be loud and long.

I don’t care how harmless they are, those things are creepy as hell and I couldn’t live anywhere with so many bugs, especially spiders, and especally those spiders!

Are they a good source of protein?

If that thing bit you you would get two, maybe three steps off before you hit the ground and within 30 seconds it would be feasting on your brain goo. I’ve seen it time and time again ...

Have had one or two of these spiders on the corners of my house for the past three years. One of them positioned itself right in the flight path of honeybees returning to their hives in my backyard. I had to remove this one’s web. Saw it on the other side of the house about a month later. I just moved another one last week. Colorful creatures, these. Big, too.

Most spiders are actually quite beneficial because they eat the vermin and other bugs that we find so disgusting.

What a strange article.
It speaks of their exterminator abilities on other insects and then dangles their nutritional content without explanation, I clicked the link - Not even a lousy Recipe.....

It looks like the spiders we have on the Texas Gulf coast we call ‘writer spiders’. The make a design in the middle of their webs that looks like script. Harmless but big and scary looking.

Joe,
I’m not saying you may have an arachnid problem, BUT.

Used to have those all over one portion of my yard when I lived in the Panhandle.
The biggest problem was not knowing the webs were there and walking into them in twilight, then seeing all these bigass spiders all over.
Arachnophobia strikes again!
