The Department of Entomology at <a href="http://spiders.ucr.edu/brownwidow.html" title="UCRiverside">UCRiverside</a> says be not afraid. The brown widow was discovered here in 2003 in all the usual places like wood piles, stacked pots and under rocks. But the report says the spider is “not dangerous, nor deadly.” A bite hurts a little and leaves a mark, but not much more. More toxic is our black widow. “The native black widow is still the major spider of medical importance in Southern California, always has been and always will be.” Maybe our resident bug enthusiast Vanessa Cardui at <a href="http://bugyou.blogspot.com/" title="Am I Bugging you Yet?">Am I Bugging you Yet?</a> will pipe in with comments. Vanessa, you there? <h1> speaking of spideys </h1> Take a peek at the “bugwear” by Laura Zindel at <a href="http://www.blackbirdballard.com/Laura_Zindel_Merchantile_All.html" title="Blackbird">Blackbird.com</a>. If bugs are your best friends you might like the beetle coffee mugs, saw fly espresso or cave spider cup and saucer set. I repeat, might. <img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/uploads/37472_1.jpg" style="border: 0;" alt="image" width="107" height="150" /> <h1> whatever </h1> <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/earthnews/5595619/Plants-talk-to-warn-each-other-of-threats.html" title="Independent.uk">Independent.uk</a>—It turns out that plants DO talk, at least to each other.
