Big mean spider

I rotated the tires on my 85 f150 and when I took the rear wheel off this thing was right there on the hub looking at me. I ran for my camera but when I got back he was gone. I got down under the truck and found him on the backside of the hub. I would hate to have a nest of black widows on my truck.

If it was me I would have just ran, I hate spiders I had to force myself to look at that picture. Hope you don't have a nest on your truck.

Do yourself a favor spray that truck! I got bit a few years back on the wrist.
I could not move my wrist for a good month. Thank god I did not get bit in my most important place.

And yes, I'm sure you guys will determine where that place is.

I'm pretty sure that the wrist IS the most important place for most guys.
