I goto these Trailors to clean them everyday, and at night the spectaculars come out :) These spiders, I feed them with the bugs that fly on the lights, and some pretty big moths once like every 2 or 3 days.
What kind of spider are they? Are they dangerous?

This appears to be a repeat of an earlier posting today, to which I replied: "This is yet another orb-weaving spider (family Araneidae). There are several species with this general color pattern; see [HYPERLINK@www.pbase.com] for an example (Larinioides cornutus)."
I see these spiders all the time.They spin beautiful webs,and its fun to watch them spin em.LOL--I call them big butts..whenever I see one,I say,"there's a big butt!"
