first one is a banana spider. those get BIG> any corn stalks near you. they are very popular in the corn feilds.
funny thing is im uploading a video right now of a swarm of bee's that have been getting at me. they attacked me about a week ago then later that day they got me while i was mowing the lawn. then 2 days later they got me again in the garage. i tried NO CHIT about 7 kinds of spray and all have had no effect. i was going to post on here to see if anyone has any ideas before i spend the cash on an exterminator. well it is now finished uploading so have a look at these bees. they dont stop. you could watch them for ten minutes straight and they never stop leaving and coming. there must be a crap load of them in there.

the first one is an Argiope spider/Corn Spider

The second almost looks like a fiddle back but not quite. I can't seem to figure that one out
