This spider searches out mosquitos that have fed on humans. They like our blood

Yes, that would be interesting. Instead of a bug zapper and army of jumping spiders!

I wouldnt mind having a few dozen of them living out on my front porch. I hate mosquitos with a passion.

According to the article, they like mosqitoes that are already full of blood. Personally, I'd prefer a biocontrol that's effective BEFORE the mosquito bites.

Mosquito prevention? Get some dragonflies. Mosquito control? Get the jumpers. Wait... did I just hear of a movie called The Frog on a commercial just now? Anyway, cool spider. I wish jumpers were like.... 6 or 7 inches.

That'd be awesome...set a mouse hopper free across the room..watch the spider pounce on it from 20 feet away

HAHAHAHA!!! No, it's The Fog, but I'm sure it's just as promising as any "B" movie called "The Frog" would be.
