Beware of The Banana Spider
Do you know the banana spider?
They call it that because every now and then it can be found in crates of bananas that come from tropical countries.
Beware of The Banana Spider
This spider is generally not very poisonous but there is a Brazilian species called Phoneutria that can also kill a human being.
However, the bite of most banana spiders, most of the time, is not fatal. The symptoms are sweating, fever, and a lot of pain and burning that usually lasts a day and occurs 3 hours after the bite.
Some of these spiders can also be very large and are very scary if you happen to encounter one. Generally, they can measure from 0.5 inches (12 mm) to 1.5 inches (38 mm) depending on the species.
For banana growers, these spiders are important as they stop many flies, midges, and cockroaches that could ruin the crop.
In the U.S.A the state that counts the most Banana spiders is definitely Florida. In fact, this insect loves hot and humid climates.
A very curious peculiarity of the venom of many spiders, including the banana spider, is that if it bites a man it can cause priapism (a long and painful erection of the penis).
If you have any problems in bed, however, we do not recommend spider-biting as the negative things outweigh the benefits. Help yourself with viagra.
It should be clarified that the Banana spider can only be found in boxes containing bananas and not inside bananas. Both the spider and its eggs could not survive trapped in a banana.
