Isn't one of the Spiders in Ireland the most poisonous in the world? but there fangs are to short to bite... wanna be careful stepping on them
I think that's the daddy long legs you're on about. Very potent venom but no delivery mechanism.
Spiders are great. If you catch them by one back leg and lift them they go into a sort of freeze mode all splayed out. You can them carry them out safely neither you not the spider get hurt. Well as long as you don't jerk or snap when lifting cos you could pull the leg off. They go clean mad then and will attack you with the same resolve and determination they show when building their web day in day out just cos some lad has to get his bike in and out the gate.
