Spiders and snakes don't bother me. The wifey is always gittin at me about handling rattlers and copperheads but the have to be moved sometimes. Not affraid of much.

Just don't get in my way if a big cockroach starts flying around or you will get hurt.

Snakes are no problem but the spiders scare the Bageezes out of me. I got bit one time and it got pretty ungly. Besides, it's so easy to see the snake and so hard to se those tiny spiders.

Yeah, Them dang lobsters can get purty nasty, jumpin on a poor one legged fella an draggin him all over.

Hey Zaner, We got the brown recluse and plenty of black widows down here all year long. I'm not allergic so they leave a small bump is all. Benn bit quite a few times. Now my younger bro is allergic. A recluse got him a couple of weeks back and it ate a hole in him but it slowley healed and their bites rarely leave a scare.

Did you know that there is no documented proof that anyone has ever died from a recluse bite. In fact they are very rare. FYI

I was under the house checking things out and came across this huge Wolf Spider. In case ya'll didn't hear me.......HUGE! I found peice of tin to poke it with. When I poked it it struck the tin and it made a ringing sound as the fangs hit the tin. Kid you not the leg span had to be 5 or 6 inches. Shoot if that bit ya it would probably hit bone!

Just the thought of that story will send chills up my spine for some time to come!!!

Hey Warren, I know we have a few Brown Recluses up here too but no Black Widows. I'm a nature lover but I kill every butt-ugly spider i see!

Got bit by one of the Garden Spiders. Two pools of blood come right out where it bit. Big fangs on those.

Yeah, they bite, and can cause problems if you're bitten in the right place.  I used to catch those large flying grasshoppers and throw them in their webs, and watch the attack, restraint, and death happen within seconds.  Zane, I hate to break it to you, but we DO have Widows.  Not as bad as some places, but they're here for sure.  The recluse bothers me the most, I cant imagine having to watch my skin die and turn black.  That would suck.  That red one that Shag posted was dug from a couple feet under, it was a nasty one.

Hey Josh, The skin doesn't turn black, It rots away into a nice big puss filled yellow hole with a nice red trim.......

I know of 2 people that were bit by a brown recluse. One here in NY. I worked with the guy in a textile mill. Last summer a brown recluse hitched a ride from south carolina or georgia. i forget which state for sure. He rode in with a shipment of cloth. He got bit on the arm, my cousin got bit on the hand in KY. They both came close to losing their arm. I definately don't want to see if I'm allergic myself. Nasty little critters they are. Swizzle
