Just before I started my long hours of manual laundry yesterday, I took notice of this creature lurking under the sink.
I was about to shoe it away at first but Then I noticed it was hunting for mosquitos. While doing my laundry, I was constantly staring at it for movements. Didn't move much except when it caught something. Once I was done with laundry, I watered the plants.
But while setting up the hose, I accidentally pointed out were the spider was handing and quickly ran from it. I got scared too because it was fast, should have set up properly next time.
I took a picture of it and as you can see, it has eyes

Hello @magallon Well, this one and half inch big and it's also fast. I didn't want to kill it though because it prefers to evade me.

@Letranknight2015 is it a usual home spider or a tarantula? It looks scary.

You shouldn't have save it because it's nature for it to kill the ant @ShifaLk unless the ant is your pet

I do not like spiders at all. They are creepy and hurt and make me itch when I get bit. Some can be posionous as well but we don't have many where I live e thankfully. If they are in my home I kill them. If they are outside I leave them be.

@Letranknight2015 Well letting it just stay there it will breed more if you think it is poisonous you need to kill it. Spray it with raid?

Hello @shaggin I think this is one of the poisonous spiders i've research before, but I dare not to touch it because I know how fast it is.

oh my hijo, you are like my son who is so scared of spiders. no, i don't think spiders have more than 2 eyes. i mean compound eyes. from what i recall in Science subject, insects have 2 simple eyes but as simple eye has many compound eyes that is why they can catch a flying insect lke a mosquito.

Hello @ridingbet If you see it's eyes it was reflected on the shot, that kinda scared me the first time I saw it on the film. I hope I don't encounter some of them inside my house.

@Letranknight2015 but those spiders that have long 8 legs, they are swift movers, right? so when we shoo them with a broom or a stick, they go. they don't bite anyway.

Yes, I agree but unfortunately, there's just too many of them @JohnRoberts maybe I should buy an iguana or lizard.

Hello @josie_ I don't think it was staring at me. I looked at it closely and it seemed hunting for mosquitos and notice its movements when ever it caught one.

Yes, it has eyes and serves a purpose from you are stating here. Hope it continues to live and eat more mosquitoes.
