Spiders, I was bitten by one about a month ago. I never did see the critter but I had huge bunch on the back of my leg for about 3 days. It looked to be a spider bite and the two little fang marks, the bite was had white around the edges, and seeped a clear pure looking substance. The swelling didn't start to go down until I placed a dressing on it to draw out the poison. I wonder if it wasn't the widow that bit me.

On a side note my friends parents once found a tarantula in a box of bananas.
