Spotting the Most Dangerous Spiders Found in East Texas

(KNUE-FM) According to my wife every spider in Texas is the worst kind of spider ever.

We know that there are going to be creatures that most people don’t like such as spiders and snakes.

Luckily, I can deal with spiders and remove those from our home, snakes are where I am less than helpful.

It’s a good deal we have worked out for our house; I remove or eliminate any and all spiders in or around our house. That’s the deal.

While there can be some big spiders here in East Texas most of them never bother me, so I can remove them without issue.

But there are some spiders you need to stay away from if at all possible.

I’ve never really been afraid of spiders, I understand that they can harm people, so I try to keep my distance.

But it did make me wonder, what are the worst spiders that are found in Texas?

Here is a list that will help you understand more of the dangerous Texas spiders that you need to avoid.

There are Lots of Helpful Spiders Found in Texas Too

While it’s easy for people to say they hate spiders and want to kill all of them.

There are some spiders that are helpful. They can quickly eliminate other pests that we don’t want around.

Spiders also help to protect pollinators like bees and butterflies.

They can also reduce the need for chemical pesticides by keeping pest populations in check.

Leave the Texas Spiders Alone

If you come across a spider and it’s not causing any harm, I would leave it alone.

Spiders can truly help many things on our planet.

Although, if my wife yells from the other side of the house, I don’t have a choice, that spider will have to be eliminated.
