She'l be happy !!!


Worst thing I remember was once going to bed on the mediterranean coast south of France and found a dead scorpion in the bed sheets.
Scared me tonnes at the time as I couldnt sleeep the rest of the night.

Apparently they're harmless...and not actually spiders, but related

I'd still brick myself if one started following my shadow, especially if it was nearly noon!

When active during the day they avoid the hot patches of ground and run from shadow to shadow even if the shadow is made by a human. When the human moves, the solifugid moves into the shadow. This gives the impression that the animal is chasing the human thus solifugids are commonly called hunting spiders.

They are more abundant in drier regions and range in size from 25mm to 75mm in length.

The ones in the piccy look a hell of a lot bigger than 3 inches! :disturbd: :Yikes:
