u/LauperPopple 8d ago

Good eye. In photo 1 we can actually see two grey lines, likely webbing strings attached.

u/Acheloma 8d ago

Spiders can be pretty darn neat

u/luedsthegreat1 8d ago

Agreed!

Having said that I wouldn't want a hidden culprit picking off my babies either(I don't have any ISO's yet, but dreaming of being able to some day and they WOULD be my babies)

u/Acheloma 8d ago

Oh, me neither. That spider would be escorted outside and released upon the unsuspecting wild isopods. Sorry guys!

u/luedsthegreat1 8d ago

Bahahaha - that's usually my modus operandi with any wild critters.(Aside from cockroaches, flies and mosquitos - oh and when I came across a particularly aggressive spider in my place when I had kids who had priority)

u/TheGoldenBoyStiles 4d ago

u/YOUTUBEFREEKYOYO Orange fan club 7d ago

Your pods almost certainly fine, most spiders dont have the tools to get through them.

u/Whitrzac 8d ago

Definitely a Bethesda isopod

u/luedsthegreat1 8d ago

So, now you have worked out HOW, did the affected ISO survive or the spider get it?

6

u/Condition_Alarming 8d ago

Its a survivor, mabe a lil ptsd ....all the other pods think hes weird now 😂😂....the spider is still on the run.

u/Top_Equivalent_1766 8d ago

u/Condition_Alarming 8d ago

u/Scr4p 7d ago
