It's almost definitely a practical joke. I've never heard of a jumping spider that big; the only ones about that size are Goliath tarantulas that live in South America or the Huntsmans which live in Laos.

Oh, and there are probably 10,000 eggs somewhere in your house, just waiting to hatch.

Probably in his pillow. It's a nice, warm location.

Kill what you will, but let the jumpers go. They hunt on the hoof needing no web just thier jump line. They keep those other critters that crawl across you every night while you're asleep at bay.
Btw. Did i mention you were a pussy? I reckon in reality it doesn't matter much. Air your girlish phobia in public and someone will come to your rescue.

I haven't read the thread, but jumping spiders in the states are pretty much contained to Black Widows.
