    :D aww, The common name of this beautiful spider is wasp spider. This spider is, like all orb-weavers, not poisonous for us.But while they can bite, the creatures are not poisonous.

    The adult female has a shining silvery cephalothorax (head) and a yellowish abdomen with black and white bars across it.

    poor things proberly more scared of us than we are of them :D
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png
