Our docks are just loaded with spiders,

Here in SC, the Brown Recluse, noted to be the most poisonous spider on
the planet, has failed to read the Entomologist's map confining them to
southern midwest states and there are millions of them, everywhere.
They're probably worse in the map's colored in part, but the map is DEAD
WRONG.

The poison eats flesh and CONTINUES. A friend of mine had to have his
HAND CUT OFF to stop it. Everyone in the South or coming to the South
needs to recognize this little brown, unobtrusive little beast. They are
not aggressive until you put your hand under something they've chosen for
home or press them up against something, like rolling over on one in
bed....

They are MUCH harder to spot than our other nemesis the Black
Widow.....which my churches are just FULL OF! I got bit when a Black
Widow took a dim view of my pulling the pedal clavier out from under a
Hammond organ to repair it. There were THREE Black Widows sharing the
pedal habitat, right under the organist's feet. OUCH!

This entomologist's site mentions glue boards as a way to trap them.
(See the pictures). Might be a good idea in the nooks and crannies
spiders love on your boats. My pest control man says spiders are the
hardest thing to kill with pesticides. You just about have to drown them
in it.

Just one of the next generations of dominant species to take over when
the current humans have blown themselves to hell with their
weaponry......after the nuclear winter.


And I thought we had it bad with little red ants that burn like hell
when they bite!
