I've left mine go because even though the biggest spider is over an inch across (and the big #$!&@ hangs out on the center of her web all the damn time) they're probably one of the least dangerous of the arachnid world and I'm hoping she'll eat some goddamned stinkbugs once they start coming back.
I don't like spiders, but I think the board has a decent understanding of my position on stinkbugs.
Yeah, it's a garden orb weaver. It's well over an inch, if we're including the legs. The body itself is close to half an inch.
I'm aware it's harmless, and that it eats bugs, which is why I haven't killed it. But I don't have to like it.
