A friend worked for a transport company down here. She got bitten by a brown recluse just below her one eye - it must have been brought down.

She was lucky that all she suffered was some bad bruising for months.

Apart from when I was working in mountain areas, I have seen a lot less spiders here than in the UK.

So far they only look at me like I'm a piece of meat , whether I'm alone or with my husband doesn't make a difference.. they scare the life out of me every time they stop the car (while I'm walking) and offer "a ride somewhere" and they make comments I don't like at all but I can't tell them to F off in a language they can understand because they like that too!!!!

Do you think they also bite?

I am sure you could come up with a few select curses, cagar en sus muertos or similar that would leave them speechless. Spanish do have one hell of a lot of very imaginative curse words to select from.

And yes, they probably would bite you... but I doubt many of them are poisonous.

They get turned on by my accent so I just pretend I'm deaf and dumb..

Thank God they are not poisonous!!

It might not be your accent that turns them on. ;-)
