Spiders Rock

Personally I admire spiders... They are great for removing pests and find them faster than pest control. But as for the dangerous ones, best bet is to either remove them safely from your house or leave them alone. Most spiders aren't too aggresive, unless you live in the tropics...
 
Favorite spider: Camel Spider (Also called sun spider) Order: Solifugae. No venom, just sharp jaws. They can run at 10 mph (true fact), and they can leave gashing bite marks if tampered with.

My second favorite arachnid is the scorpion. Specifically the Asian Forest Scorpion: http://www.scorpionpictureguide.com/scorpions/asian-forest-scorpion-care/
