Even if it's nonvenomous I'm still terrified of it. I'll pay someone $1000 to come kill it for me.

Marbled Orb Weaver

Very beneficial spider around the garden. The "electric" colors help to keep them from becoming prey as those colors are instinctively ingrained in animals and insects as ones typically deemed as hazardous, aka poisonous.

The poor buggers are confused because the weather has been so spring like recently and they think it's time to appear and catch insects. I get them all the time, it's no big deal. By tomorrow, they be gone.

They're like these fellas here:

Very beneficial but very toxic looking.
