      @@wollewolf9863 The ones we have here in Utah are pretty hardy little buggers. I haven't had any species from anywhere else but from my research they are very similar to each other in care much like preying mantis are. They are pretty short lived though. Typically they live for a bit more than a year and when you just happen to find one on the porch (how I got all mine) they are usually middle aged. So as a pet it will only last for about 6 months or so. I think that there may be longer living species but I am more of a tarantula guy. Some tarantula females can live to 25-30 years.

    Okay, I just re-watched this video and I've gotta stand up for my beautiful widow ladies. Those males they eat after mating deserve it - lazy jerks hardly ever web up on their own, they let the ladies do all the hard work of catching and incapacitating prey, then they come along, wreck the web and steal it right out from under her. Rude.
    I love my widows. If the tarantulas aren't enough to keep people from dropping in without notice, mentioning that I have more than a few widows usually does the trick. ;)

    The Egyptian Giant Solpugid isn't dangerous and lacks venom, but it is still horrifying to look at. They're also super fast and have a reputation for following people's shadows to escape the heated desert. I'd argue they're more terrifying than amplypigids and vinegaroons just by appearance alone.

    Harvestmen are pretty creepy. They are often mistaken for spiders; particularly cellar spiders and also share the “daddy long-leg” moniker. I used to see harvestmen on Ken the Bug Guy’s webpage, and he had some different colored ones also. They are not venomous and they are not actually spiders at all. Black hole spiders are a good alternative, and are super easy to take care of. They looked like young wolf spiders when I saw and held one. The are fairly creepy and skittish.

    When I used to Live in Zanzibar many, many years ago, they had Giant African Millipedes there (Archispirostreptus gigas.).
    They used to call them the Tanganyika Trains as they would grow over 12 inches long.
    My dad used to collect and put any invertebrates that were found in the house into a large specimen bottle of formalin to keep to remind us when we got back to the UK of what he'd found. Some of the ones he had were upto 10 inches long. Still only 2/3rds fully grown!! :-))...

    As for spiders, centipedes and scorpions..well, being born and raised in Hawaii - we had those huge Cane Spiders that were all over the place inside your home. Though non-venomous, they would scare the bejeezus out of me, especially if you move a bath towel and they're right under there - those things are FAST! I got stung by centipedes several times because they'd crawl up my pant legs without me knowing so when I'd sit down...BAM! Yah...fun...

    Ahah, like you for your fear of tarantulas, I got my first emperor scorpions in hope to overcome my "fear" of them! While I found them very pretty and interesting, scorpions, most likely due to there not being anything like them here in Québec, the idea of being close to one always made me uncomfortable. Like... I would be able to admire them, and was quite fond of their look, but could never muster the courage to actually care for one.
    Now I'm always looking forward to going back to my mom's place (living in dorm, pets not allowed :'( ) so I can care for them!
    Vinegaroons are SO AMAZING!!! I have one, and she's so amazing! I've never been sprayed by her yet (touching wood lol), and handling her is really fun!

    When I lived in Fort Myers FL, I saw widows all the time, black & brown. I never saw one with a body that looked like a raw nutmeg fruit before. Very cool. My favorite spiders will always be the jumpers though. Tough little hunters. :)

    I give you props to housing an Arizona Bark. I live in Phoenix, born and raised, and I cant get over them. They're everywhere, even in my nightmares. Ive had black widows, and their eggs with hundreds of their babies laying dorment in my couch. But the Bark scorpion reigns as my all time worst experience. Had them coming down from my apartment light fixture. Had babies too. Creepy AF.

    Great video! One creepy crawly that i have has got to be either a pair of ornate harvestmen, kinda looking like a cross between a crab and a spider, OR my newly acquired orange assassin bug, now, im not too keen on them, they freak me out, but i saw him on a floating log at a lake and though, why not? Gave him a second chance, and me a newfound fondness to them. Sorry for the essay haha, but i seriously like your videos!

    I don't know of anyone keeping them as pets, but I've photographed Yellow Garden Spiders, Banded Argiope Spiders and Wheel Bugs in the wild. All three species are large and impressive.

    Your black widow is really kewl looking with the stripes on it's back. We have them every where here where I live, but the ones here are solid black with just the hourglass. I didnt know how different they could look. Love your videos, cant wait for the next one!

    I kept a black widow in a blender when I lived in 29 palms😂. She got bigger than I thought.
    I had to let it go when a SSgt found it in my unsecured wall locker during inspection. They really are amazing for a web spider. Very elegant.

    At this point, I’m becoming peoples worst nightmare. Every time I watch one of your videos, I walk away like “Hmm, that species was so cool! Maybe if I do my research enough I can get that!” And all my arachnophobic friends and family sigh in the background 😭

    I have a tailless whip scorpion in my collection. A Damon Medius species. Her name is Moody after Mad Eye Moody from Harry Potter. She’s cool but she’s definitely creepy at times. Whenever I mist her enclosure, she scurries right out from behind her cork bark to give me the death stare 😅
