It's the radioactivity that makes them green.

Do you suit lycra?

Looks radioactive, get it to bite you and if you develop wall crawling abilities and a tingly spider sense I'm right.  If, however you die a horrible nasty death it's probably poisonous.

About 5mm with a neon green/yellow abdomen? It's a Cucumber Spider, apparently. I had one hanging from my helmet (ooh err!) in my eyeline, after riding though some local woods last weekend. They are supposedly quite common, but I have never seen on before and I'm old! The one I saw looked absolutely toxic.

Spooky, I found one of these in my bath the other day. Had never seen one before. Anyway, I got it to crawl onto my hand and I relocated it outside.

Yep getting more common. We went on a bug hunt with the scouts a few weeks ago and the forest ranger lady found a few of these for us. She said they used to be rare but this year they are everywhere.

The black one with green iridescent fangs will give you a nasty nip.

It's Segestria florentina, and I threw one out of my flat in Kettering a few years back.

Why - was it browsing dodgy web sites?

Cucumber spider, eh?

I've clearly been carrying too much salad or woodland in my car.

It had fitted a smart meter and was keeping a dog😋

Green orb spider. Beautiful things. I got a nice photo of one a couple of years ago.
