This is News?!? Heck, I see these spiders all the time in Southern Kansas. They like dark, dry places. Have to check my shoes in the springtime before I put them on! Perhaps it is news for New York City, but I know the Brown Recluse is widespread, in every contiguous state, I believe.

This isn’t a big ‘scoop’ or anything. This is what we call a ‘slow news day.’

The last time I was at the dentist’s office, as I was leaving there was a Brown Recluse on the door knob going out. I almost grabbed it. I was a little shocked that it was there. They don’t typically venture around out in the open, especially on door knobs!

I would have thought an infestation of crabs would be found in Howard Stern’s offices, not bedbugs.

We have the Brown Recluse here in Tennessee, too. I killed a Black Widow in the dog kennel the other day. Nasty looking creatures.

Daddy longleg spiders are one of the most poisonous spiders in the world, but their fangs are too tiny to penetrate human skin.

Consider ourselves fortunate!

The New York City Department of Housing Preservation cited the building for vermin spiders. In the end, Ingram sued the landlord, settled, and was able to break her lease.

And that just about says it all about our society. Sheesh

Will spiders kill bed bugs?

My friend was bitten by a recluse spider. She nearly lost her hand. The surgeons did manage to save her hand, but it is very disfigured and she has no use whatsoever of some of her fingers.

Oh wow!

Maybe this is all part of God’s plan to afflict this nation with plagues.

Of course the spiders would say:

New York apartments overrun by monkeys with big behinds!!

Two sides to every story, right?

Look, I’m a California boy, but back there, don’t they usually call them the co-op board?
