Maria, please accept this as a public apology.

I stated above that you were wrong, but that's only because I knew it as a different name.

I know it as a "woodlouse spider."

Lissa, since you found one in the bath you might want to hide Pete from the following information (you don't want the neighbours to hear him scream do you?

).

It's named the "woodlouse spider" after the prey it eats. Namely woodlice. It's fangs are so sharp (because woodlice are damned tough little beggars) that it's the only spider native to the UK that can actually bite a human.

So there. :P

It was Pete who found it. He just draped toilet paper over the edge of the bath and let the spider take it's chance with our three cats.

We never saw the spider again!

I'm tempted to ask a question about before/after...

Maybe 2inch, a little more for the length of the body, "head to tail" - not that spiders have tails, obviously.
