I managed to keep it hidden under the couch while my students were here. I didn't want any of them to "freak out."
According to the Encyclopedia of Animals [National Geographic], the venom of only 30 out of 40,000 species of spider can cause illness in humans.
No mention of those who have strokes or heart attacks, though!! Lol.
I think they are very interesting creatures, but they can stay out of our house.
Interestingly spiders, scorpions, daddy longlegs, mites, and ticks are all arachnids. Imagine the fun at a family reunion!
I'm picturing the nine-legged races - hmmm, okay, I don't want to picture that any more.
