I caught one on /20/2011 in Moreno Valley,Ca. they are neat little guys that seem to float. Is it true they kill black widows?

Cool I love Solpugids! Their jaws are incredible and they seem intelligent to me.

I found one right in front of my house at night last month. Live in Henderson, NV. Took a picture of it too. Glad I googled "spiders '10 legs'"...

I caught one of these in my house in Phoenix, AZ... Saturday night 08/23. I was just wondering how dangerous it is or how good it is for my environment. I read in other articles that they kill scorpions (which I have many of on my property). It was large and ugly (only a mother could love it) I put it outside.
