There's A #Spider On Your Shoulder! #fashion


Couldn't resist linking to this new T shirt design. Not for the arachnophobe in your family but I love it. How about one covered in killer bees or beetles? Oh the endless possibilities!

Assassin Bug Uses Ninja Skills To Sneaks Up On #Spiders


How assassin bugs hunt spiders in their webs  without alerting the spider to their presence has long been a mystery, but researches have now found the bugs use noise to sneak up on their prey by  waiting for the wind to rustle the web. Most web building spiders have poor eyesight & rely on interpreting vibrations on their web. Using a fan in the lab,  researchers at Macquarie University in Sydney discovered that when the fan was switched on to simulate a breeze the assassin bugs “stepped more often and walked in a more continuous manner" using the breeze to mask their movements. It is also thought the assassin bugs strange bouncing gait may replicate debris moving in the wind, further confusing the spider.

Enjoy This #Spider Season With The Guardian


After the dismal weather during Summer this Autumn promises to be a bumper year for spiders in our homes.  The Guardian newspaper is running a campaign to get us to engage with our eight-legged friends this year.  Apparently the most common house spider is likely to be a lovesick male searching for a mate. Though most spiders are venomous only about 12 species have fangs capable of piercing human skin and the spiders are very effective at keeping down the numbers of other, more damaging creepy crawlies in your home, especially clothes moths.  The Guardian are asking readers to catch & photograph their spiders, using a glass & piece of card with a centimetre grid on for sizing purposes, & send the photos in.

Killer Spiders from Australia invading Britain...

Pest control has just got scarier!

Check out this article about spiders a species of the infamous black widow spider entering the UK.


Killer spiders from Australia invading Britain

Redback spider ... bite can cause chest pain and has killed 14 in Australia
Redback spider ... bite can cause chest pain and has killed 14 in Australia

SCARY spiders from Down Under with a painful bite that can KILL are being found all over Britain.

The Australian redback, a relative of the Black Widow, is one of the deadliest in Oz. Experts warn it is part of a wave of foreign creepy-crawlies invading us — including the German Cockroach and Pharaoh Ant. They arrive in imports and travellers' luggage.
Redbacks were found all over the country, including a dozen at a factory in Preston, Lancs. Pea-sized with a red stripe, their bite causes pain, swelling, nausea, chest pain, fever — and responsible for 14 deaths in Oz.
Others in a pest control poll were: GERMAN COCKROACHES: Over-running world. Stink. Hard to kill.
PHARAOH ANTS: From Africa. Love hospitals. Feed on wounds.
STINK ANTS: From Africa. Smell of rotten coconuts. 100,000 in group.
CRAZY ANTS: From Oz. Named because they zig-zag. Painful bite.
Richard Mosley, of the British Pest Control Association, said: "These insects are on the move."

Forget Spiderman, Here Are 7 Real insect Superpowers


Darwin's bark spider produces the strongest natural substance on Earth, spinning silk that is 10 times stronger than Kevlar and 25 times stronger than steel. The fishing spider can walk on water to catch fish. Tiger moth's can jam a bat's sonar. The ironclad beetle lives up to its name with the hardest exoskeleton of any arthropod in existence. The humble fly has 360-degree vision &  it takes it just 100 milliseconds to spot a flyswatter and calculate the exact escape route needed to get away (faster than you can blink) By a combination of smell, sight and heat detection, mosquitoes can not only pinpoint your exact location from over 100 feet away, they can also detect your blood type. Nasutitermitinae termite soldiers have a gun in their face that shoots poisonous glue!

Whip Spiders Picking Up Bad Vibrations


Fearsome looking whip spiders Phrynus marginemaculatus have massive pincers tipped with spikes and their front legs have evolved into long 'whips' which they use to feel for their prey. In confrontations between themselves however the whips are employed differently. The two rivals circle & probe each other with their whips more & more intensely until they are vibrating the whips without touching. One combatant usually retreats at this stage as the vibrations are picked up by sensitive hairs along their legs. When scientists shaved the hairs, the threat displays went on for twice as long and were three or four times more likely to end in fights. The big question is: how do you go about shaving a spider's legs?

Black Widow Spiders Invade Factory

I hope black widows can't swim, or afford the bridge toll, because this is just across the Humber river from me! An engineering firm in Barton-upon-Humber have had some surprise visitors. Three of the spiders, including a deadly female & a brown widow were found in a shipment of aircraft engines from America. Workers managed to trap each one & are now keeping them as pets in jam jars until they can be re-homed in a wildlife park. Environmental health officers were informed & have inspected the shipment & declared it now safe.
