    Really, how can you hate someone with such beautiful weaving skills?

    I'm not specifically afraid of spiders, but I recognize the danger and threat of them. Otherwise, species that are harmless wouldn't bother me too much. Insects, Millipedes/Centipedes, and other arthropods that aren't spiders frighten me much more. I don't know why they specifically bother me while spiders don't. Maybe because of features like antena and small squirmy legs. Also many spiders have fur, which make them seem a bit more mammal-like, even if they're not. The only thing that really bothers me about spiders are all of the eyes they have.

    I was never afraid of spiders until I found out that these fish eating beasts live in a marsh near me. I think in reality though it would be much more scared of my ugly mug than me of it.

    The brown recluse:


    They like to hide and usually bite when you happen to touch one. They have a nasty bite that can cause dermonecrotic lesions (i.e., necrosis). I would post pictures but they are to hideous to view.
    Aren't they like super fast too? I've heard they can hide in between fruits and crates -yikes!

    Scorpions are cool looking, although I wouldn't want to get in a tryst with one.
    Ticks are evil! A cousin of mine contracted Lyme disease because of one and it is tearing his life apart
