Some nasty fangs on that beast. So bad tempered as well as deadly, huh?

Fun fact, no one has died from a bite since the antidote was developed in the late 70's. But still, no one wants to be convulsing in a bed.

Was reading about another antidote developed in the 50s for one of the spiders in the pics I posted, don’t remember which one, though.

Speak for yourself!!

Anything with eight legs is the devil's work and should be immediately spray painted white with fly spray!

Would have been the redback. We have plenty of them and they are pretty much a non event. They just hide and you can pick their webs easily enough.

Funnel Web's (the one with the fangs) are a totally different story, those MF's will hunt you down.
