It focuses on spiders in the US; millions of Americans would probably love to read it, since a person living in the country, or even the suburbs, likely encounters spiders.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m Canadian, of course, living on the West Coast, but I recognize some of the spiders in the article. It&#8217;s spider-friendly, pointing out the benefits of spiders, yet admitting that sometimes dangerous ones can be too close for comfort.<\/p>\n<p>A couple of teasers from the article:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>There are 4 &#8220;medically dangerous&#8221;, as the article describes them, spiders in the US, from a total species count of around 3,000.<\/li>\n<li>One of the four originates from Africa.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The article has some great pictures to help someone ID a dangerous kind of spider. It also mentions some very common harmless ones.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, Jen, for bringing my attention to <a href=\"https:\/\/howigetridof.com\/spider-identification\/\">Spider Identification &#8211; Dangerous Spider Vs Harmless Spider?<\/a> I encourage everyone who encounters spiders to read it.<\/p>\n<p>For years, I&#8217;ve known the danger of poisonous spider bites is real: I wear gloves even to open the shed door:)<\/p>\n<p>Source:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/howigetridof.com\/spider-identification\/\">Spider Identification &#8211; Dangerous Spider vs Harmless Spider?<\/a><\/p>\nJack of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oracletutoring.ca\">Oracle Tutoring by Jack and Diane,<\/a> Campbell River, BC.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Self-tutoring about spider identification: the tutor mentions an article he was suggested.
