Ewwwie! Got my first scary spiderrrr yukkk. We thought it a Black Widow, but we’ve been told it’s a Redback Widow. 😳☹️ I was moving a plant and it was under the dolly- crawled right across my hand. SCARED me to death. I was bitten by a Brown Recluse 10+ years ago- all I can say is spiders freak me out out. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #GregGang #SpiderShelfieSaturday

😱 girl! I would have just laid down and died if that would've crawled across my hand! Time to spray that peppermint oil like nobody's business!

In your profile it says you live in Texas, and Redbacks are native to Australia. It must have hitchhiked a ride. Ummm that's very scary. 😨

Many years ago when I was working at the wholesale nursery called Greenbrier Farms located in Chesapeake Virginia I had to stand up because I had been bent over for a long time and I happened to look down at my feet and lord and behold I had a big huge black widow spider on my left ankle facing my right leg and my boss at the time named Joyce looked at me and told me to just kill it while still on my ankle and I even had socks on, I just stood there because I knew that if I tried killing it being on my ankle it would have probably bitten me.
