So I can stop holding it!?!?!?!:eek:


It certainly takes on a hoax level when it essentially recommends everyone to check under the toilet seat because these spiders can be "anywhere" and so everywhere...but only under toilet seats. Not at sinks, swimming pools, water hoses, tubs and showers, etc, etc....I mean come on, how much habitat does it have in India if it essentially wants to live under toilet seats of all places.

I think they also like to hide on the toilet paper! (see link in my other post ) Living in this habitat makes it much easier to bite an unsuspecting person on the fannie;)

No, this is a true story. It happened to my intern's, cousin's, step father's, priest's, mechanic's daughter. Or was it my cousin's, intern's, priest's, step father's, daughter's mechanic. {D
Too good to be true. Wouldn't you kill to have a spider like that!!!

That's why they're coming over here. India is mostly squat toilets...

well in india, they think the hole is their burrow, and they launch out of the "squattie potties" when someone uses it.
