This Is How The World’s Deadliest Spider Shut Down A Grocery Store

It just so happens that the world’s deadliest spider loves chilling with bananas, which was a problem for this UK grocery store.

According to Mashable, an Aldi supermarket in Nuneaton, England found what they presumed to be eggs from the Brazilian Wandering Spider in their bananas, and decided to completely shut down the whole supermarket for safety reasons.

The spider, which has been known to cause massive boners if men are bit, can also kill a human being in a matter of hours.

An Aldi spokesperson later said that after further examination from experts, they learned that the eggs were not from a Brazilian Wandering Spider and were harmless.

So while they did the right thing and made sure some kind of spider infestation didn’t kill all of its customers, the eggs were not a big deal, thankfully.
