Venomous Spider Knowledge

Since we got on the spider topic at work, I thought I would share some helpful information. This link explains the spiders to kill and the spiders to keep -- http://hubpages.com/hub/The-Glade.

One interesting fact, Brown Recluse spiders have 6 eyes, instead of the typical 8 eyes of spiders. And if you live out west, you probably have the Hobo Spider, not the Brown Recluse. The Hobo is definitely a problem spider, just like the Brown Recluse and Black Widow.

A large Brown Recluse is compared to the size of a penny - and not all have a violin (other spiders can have, too).

Since we're talking about spiders, you might want to know about the Wandering Spider of Brazil...it's more venomous than the Black Widow...creepy! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_wandering_spider

Here's what the Wandering Spider looks like:
