False Widow Spider and other media panic attempts

Interesting to see that the sky news have come up with a story about a deadly spider in the UK. the False Black Widow. I've had details about this spider on my web site for a long time (over a year). Take a look here

if you want to see more about it and see what it looks like as I have photos on there. Most of the photos have been enlarged to make the spider visible but there is a couple of it at the true size

If you read the article you will see that it is about as dangerous as a bee. OK some may be allergic to the bite if (and it is a big if) they get bitten but in truth the dear old media are at it again and trying to create panic where none exists or is needed.
