Spiders getting a leg-over

Trying to eject a house spider from the house I popped it into a glass and dropped it out of the window.

Returning to the scene I noticed a grissley dismembered spider leg at the point of transfer into the glass.

Conscience stricken I need to know if pal . Spid. will grow a replacement leg, or should I have smashed his head in before I dropped him from the window as a humane afterthought to the dismemberment? (1st floor)???

Everything you ever wanted to know about our arachnapodian friends... including the fact they re-grow severed limbs...

Phew!  I've worried about that too.

I've also found that dropping the glass with the spider doesn't do it much good!!

Two stars....mmm...wonder if I can grow another one?
Yay!! Spiderwoman!
