Is this a wolf spider?
This is a wolf spider, most likely from the genus Tigrosa.
Are they toxic? Poisonous? I had pest control out here few days ago to set glue traps I think he mentioned they were ok? But what I have researched says otherwise
Their bite can hurt (as any bite would!) but their venom isn’t medically significant to humans and generally don’t bite unless provoked. The only scary thing about em is how big they are!
However, it is possible to be allergic to their venom, but the same goes for nearly any spider/bug! 🙂
Ok thank you! Yes I have seen more then one this one was on the smaller size the others I have seen.
