Red Back Spider

Latrodectus hasselti

Description:

You learn something new everyday, My dad's pop would go and pick the pumpkins, because he owned a farm, and red backs would always live in the pumpkin patches, so my dad's pop would get bitten by them all the time. He eventually got bitten so many times over the years that he was use to the bite and venom that he didn't get effected.
