Very pretty! After finding a really horrible red spider in an area I was digging for a new fern, I have never dug again without my gloves. Too many critters in the garden that one discovers accidently!

This is called a "wood louse hunter" - Dysdera crocata - I got it named on the identification forum here. It's bite is "painful, but not deadly".

I'd say no poking around "into the bushes to get the mail" either!!!!!
