The most poisonous spider in the world.. Nature photography challenge Day 5 of 7


Pholcus phalangioides or Daddy Long Legs spider isn't actually terribly poisonous at all, despite the rumours to the contrary.   A big one, like this has a body eight millimetres  long, although it's true her legs go on forever.

Here she sits guarding her brood in the top corner of our shower recess.

Nature in the home.

You do kind of wish they'd stay outdoors.
