spiders

A Missouri trail cam captured many people's worst nightmare walking through the woods at night.

There is an arachnid mystery in Kansas City, Missouri.

Spiders know when a harsher than normal winter is ahead for Missouri.

Many say a spider web large enough to capture a human has been found in Missouri, but is it true?

What is your greatest fear? For me, spiders are near the top of the list and that's why this time of year in Missouri is always nerve-racking. That's because the 8-legged freaks are about to come out of their holes and take over parts of the state.

I like to think that I'm brave, but I'm also sometimes stupid. (Somewhere I imagine my wife is saying "Amen!") That's why I have to remind myself not to put my hand down mysterious holes in the ground in Missouri and that's especially true this time of year. I'll explain.

It might be awhile before I sleep again and I do not wish the same fate upon you, but I must share the story of a Missouri person who just shared a terrifying story. They moved into a new home (to them anyway) and learned it already had someone(s) living there - 20 brown recluse spiders.

If you are deathly afraid of spiders like I am, this will likely be what you consider to be a worst-case scenario. Deadly brown recluse spiders are considered the most dangerous spider in Missouri, but the good news is there are easy hacks to keep them far far away.

I may never go camping near the Missouri River again after some stories have been shared about huge arachnids that apparently also call that area home. Several Missouri fishermen swear it's not an exaggeration or far-fetched tale, but what they really saw with their own eyes.

Rarely do I ever say trust that I am an expert on something. But, in the case of holes that have started appearing in Missouri yards, I am. My expertise is why you never ever want to put your hand down those holes and I can prove why with science, pictures and video.
