Attack of the Spiders
Honeybees and songbirds might be getting harder to find, but not redback spiders. In fact, so many of the poisonous arachnids are swarming the tiny Baralaba Multi Purpose Health Service hospital in Australia’s Queensland state that officials are closing the facility for one day so they can fumigate. Authorities blame the infestation on warm temperatures that have encouraged the hatching of more spiders than usual.
