coreyspowell, 6 days ago to spiders There are lots of clickbait-y stories circulating about the invasive Joro spider. For context, Joro spiders are shy, harmless to humans, and they eat many common flying insects, including mosquitoes, lanternflies, and stinkbugs. In the eastern US, you're likely to see their webs on power lines. You are NOT likely to see them hanging out on your hand. https://news.uga.edu/joro-spiders-are-shy/ #spider #invasive #nature #science
