Any spider with a "fat round body" as you put it, is most likely a garden spider family Aranaeidae. These are the very commonly spiders that build large round "typical" webs between bushes, trees and on people's front porches. They are very effective at catching and killing large flying insects, so let it be, it'll do more good than evil. None of these spiders are venomous to people, most (even the big ones) arent even able to deliver a bite, so no worries, hope this helps!

I have simply located a nest, in my lawn, of what looks to be one hundred's of little yellow and black spiders newly hatched...Never visible them earlier than in my existence.... Being just a little involved (Yellow and Black is most likely natures caution signal) I have performed a quantity of searches... After trawling the online it looks it probably be a variety of Argiope (black and yellow lawn spider) nevertheless that's a US spider and I am dwelling within the UK... Further looking shows their is a 'Wasp Spider' that's located in Contienial Europe and frequently the South Coast of England... Which continues to be a thriller as I are living within the Midlands(England - UK) that's miles from the any coast permit best the South Coast.... Should I be charging men and women to come back and seek advice from my Garden to look this infrequent web site or is there a different variety of spider out right here? They don't seem to be detrimental to men and women are they I believe??? - my mum could be very anxiouis!!! Damon

Not sure, don't know your reigon, I would just leave it alone, I live on Long Island, there are no natural poisonous spiders or snakes here, I saw something similar to that here, very pretty but, I still did'nt touch it, I don't know if it came over here from somewhere else in a pile of Lumber, or what.

Garden spider, there are a lot of them out this time of year because they'll be mating and dying before winter sets in.
