Hate Spiders? Avoid the Town of Wagga Wagga

The small town of Wagga Wagga, in New South Wales, Australia, has been faced by twin tragedies.

First, there were the floods, which have displaced residents. Then the spiders started covering everything with webs.

No, seriously. Spiders fleeing the floodwaters have gotten onto any surface they can find that’s dry and have covered it in webs. The entire town looks like the set of “Arachnophobia”. Hit that link for the pictures, but if you hate spiders, you might want to consider looking at, say, some kittens instead.
