I immediately sprayed some pesticide -Raid-, which made it run away pretty fast. Then I smashed it, so I was not able to take any pictures of the living creature. I was wondering if it could be a member of the loxosceles genus, may be a laeta or a brown recluse. It has the shape, the legs and the size -its body about half an inch and a little more than an inch lenght with spread legs. Unfortunately, I do not have any instrument to examine if it has 6 or 8 eyes. What do you think? |
