    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Are there any spider bite kits available like there are snake bite kits? The reason I'm asking is because our exterminator warned us about banana spiders that migrate from South America and are known to hide in bananas; and if you get bit by one, you've only got seven minutes to live. Also, I've seen this one creature that looks like a spider. It's greyish brown in color, and it's maybe an inch or longer, and it looks like a crab spider except it always seems to move sideways. Can anyone tell me what kind that is? I don't have a way of taking a picture of any because I never know when one will show up. Finally, I've heard that Brazilian wandering spiders cause painful erections for males if they get by one; but what does a girl experience if she gets bit?
God bless, Jason Irelan

Does that mean they don't have spider bite kits like there are snake bite kits? I absolutely can't stand spiders, but I'm more fond of snakes.
