    Saying they can fly is a bit of an exaggeration, many spiders drift, float, or simply get blown around on air currents, some do it purposely using their web. I believe they were going for the sensationalism of such a thing. This is know as yellow journalism.

    We seen one at a pumpkin farm and we thought it was a prop. We walked up and just stared at it and then it started moving. We all just stood transfixed and in unison said "OMG that is a huge spider" Then we watched people just walk right near it and I said these people think this web and spider is a decoration. I was bitten by a brown recluse on my face and I've accidentally eaten a daddy long leg. I've looked Joros in the face ... It knows my name.

    Eh... been living with Brown Recluse and Black Widow Spiders. They don't have an endless supply of venom so they try really hard not to waste it on biting humans. Bites to humans happen when they accidentally press down on the spider while reaching for something. Oh and lots of baby spiders can "fly". They sail through the air on webbing that is how they spread and find new homes.

      This is not a garden spider. They do not fly and they are no more venomous than a garden spider. They are native to Asia and came here in produce shipments. Look at the Joro spider and a garden spider side by side and you'll see the obvious differences.

    They're all over the perimeter of my house in GA and KSAW mountain is an arachnophobes nightmare, but the reduction of pests I've seen in my house from last year to now is dramatic. The Gnats were god awful last year. If they keep the pest levels down, I'll let them chill as long as I don't walk into a nest on a path. Plus they'll all thin out in the colder months. Here when I need them, gone when I don't.
