spider

A spider with venom 15 times stronger than a rattlesnake's is now "prevalent" in the Empire State.

The itsy bitsy spider climbed into a car and caused an accident this week.

A former Central New York woman is braver than most of us when it comes to interacting with bugs, as this story and these pictures will attest.

I still recall my deer hunting friend freaking out when he saw a spider. I said, "you kill deer but that spider has you running". Lots of people just do not like spiders at all. You can include this meteorologist in British Columbia named Kristi Gordon. She really freaked out by a spider the other day and get this, it wasn't even in the room with her.

Many daydream about visiting the beaches in Brazil, but you might want to rethink your travel plans a bit as the reality is that there are thousands of spiders 'descending' on Santo Antônio da Platina, and no... they ain't tiny either.

OK, we'll maybe there isn't a giant arachnid invasion planned, but this photo of a spider crawling on a webcam at the offices of the National Weather Service in Binghamton is our choice for picture of the week.
