Spider Army on the move

[HomerJay]

Arachnophobes beware. There is a silent army on the move in flooded New South Wales.

Floodwaters have stirred up what appears to be millions of spiders around Wagga Wagga and the creepy crawlies are heading for higher ground.

Residents taking refuge from flood and spider in the Red Steer pub say you cannot walk down the road without swarms of tiny brown spiders crawling up your legs, and in their escape they have left entire paddocks and trees swathed in silver silk.

Hopefully the giant centipedes will eat most of them...

But it is NSW after all - they're weird up there...
