Never heard of this spider... but all I can say is "now doesn't that sound like fun." (Not!) Been to Brazil and fortunately wasn't bitten. But may have to think long and hard now if I'll ever go back.

Living right across the street from Lake Michigan means that in the late Summer we have tons of spiders Conrad. I don't think we have these dudes but there are some pretty creepy crawlers.

I had a spider bite many years ago and it was nasty creating a huge abscess and infection. These bites can kill flesh.
