MUST know what kind of spider this is
I have got to figure out what kind of spider this is. I live in north Georgia and every one I ask has no idea what kid of spider is surrounding my porches. It's brown with yellow stripes on its legs with a black and yellow triangle on its back. Please give any info you can!! Thanks!

I googled and am guessing it is this:
Triangulate cobweb spider - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Photos -- Cobweb Spider - Steatoda triangulosa If that's an hourglass (not triangle) on its back, it could be this: Black widow spider - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |

Brieanna! I found your spider (and mine! )
I saw your pic and I was like "YES that's my spider too!" Turns out it's a Hentz Orbweaver :) Arthropod Museum, Dept. of Entomology, University of Arkansas Hairy yellow/black alternating legs, two big white dots, and lines of yellow/black on sides of abdomen! I'm in north Tennessee near Nashville. So excited, I can sleep in peace now knowing that the spider outside my children's window isn't planning to wrap them up in silk hehehe :) |

Firmbeliever beat me to it. It's one of several orb weaving spiders, including writing spiders and garden spiders, that are very active right now in the southeastern US. They are fascinating to watch, but if you want them to go away simply break up their webs.

I admit I did not check the date on the OP. You did get the I.D. right, though.

I found this spider in my room, I live in Minnesota, and this spider is about half an inch in length, has slightly furry legs, and very hard exoskeleton. It's also not brown, its black, and those lines are white.
We found a huge spider with a white sack attached to it. When we killed it, goo squished out. Do you know what kind of spider this is and is it poisonous? Also, was the spider going to have babies? Is that what the white thing was?
