MIDWEST YIELDS BIGGER SPIDERS

kpvi.com;"Here's something for Midwesterners to ponder: you're never more than three feet from a spider. Experts say spiders are plentiful, fat and happy in the Midwest this year, thanks to a cool, wet summer. Spiders typically are plump this time of year as they prepare to lay eggs. But experts say they're even fatter than normal because the summer conditions have allowed them to munch more on their favorite snack -- insects. There are about 900 known spider species in Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana. And experts say the rule of thumb is that no one is ever more than three feet from a spider."
