You might as well lock me up if this happened here.

holy cow, what in the world.

hail naw

Aw naw!!!!! My ultimate nightmare. I would lock myself in an airtight closet and not come out, or flee in a car as fast as I could.

WHY did that happen? WHERE are their predators, like birds?

YIKES. I am more afraid of spiders than just about anything, including snakes.

F that...Brazil is off the list of travel destinations. I don't think there's anything I'm more afraid of than spiders.

Take Belize off, too. My brother woke up one morning on a mission trip there and found a tarantula in his shoe.

No, you are right. I don't want to be anywhere in any COUNTRY where there is the remote possibility of THAT falling from the sky. And I thought hail was bad!

Ever drive through the AZ desert during a tarantula migration at night?

Very spooky hearing the crunch under your tires while watching thousands of oversized spiders cross the highway.

Hope you check your shoes at home.....brown recluse and black widows are notorious for this and are even worse than tarantulas. An empty shoe is quite inviting as a spidey-hidey hole....

Shoes being put into the refrigerator.

I have only found 3 brown recluse spiders here but on average I kill about 40 black widow spiders every Summer. They are everywhere and I quit keeping my yard working shoes in the garage. Found one in there once. I get so many black widows that I can touch the web and tell you if it's a BW web. Very distinct feel and sound. Kill them all!

i'm not afraid of spiders either but damn anything like that in that kind of quantity!?!?!?
F THAT!

It's like Temple of Doom sh*t! GROSS

I was bitten by a brown recluse. After a couple of days flesh and muscle on my arm was starting to rot. Still have the scar from the hole created when I went on a fall while water skiing. Nothing to play around with.

I've been bitten twice by brown recluse spiders. I check my shoes and all clothes always. It is not to be fooled around with. I don't have a morbid fear of them. Even after those two experiences. Not to be trifled with.

Sound? Yikes.

I have often wondered if I am the only woman in America who looks at and shakes her clothes each morning. I once put on pants with a roach in them, and once found a HUGE spider on my door right next to my shirt. Nothing like blood pressure in the range of 200/150 to get your day started.
