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.[sm=rolleyes.gif][&:]

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.[sm=lol.gif]

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!
