Because it's time for some facts around here!😡
#JoroSpider - Trichonephila clavata
🔹️Zero Deaths affiliated with this spider in Asia and North America. Their venom is NOT medically significant.
🔹️Only tiny babies can glide in the wind, adults are too big / heavy. None of them are actually "flying."

The invasive Joro spider is venomous and as big as your palm, but its taste for stink bugs means it could do more good than harm.
