hurry it was already one of our greatest phobias arachnophobia the fear of spiders now comes the giro spider native to asia it was first spotted in georgia nearly a decade ago they've since spread across the southeast with some using their parachute like silks to travel in the wind others hitching a ride on cars researchers say these multicolored friends are now ready to make a bigger debut because of their higher metabolism and heart rate.
They're able to survive colder temperatures so a new study at the university of georgia predicts the giro spiders will make their way up the east coast this spring look what's invading the east coast this summer it's unclear how far north they'll go but they'll be hard to miss growing up to three inches long end to end that's as wide as your palm they're imposing webs in bright yellow blue and red coloring give most folks a serious fright but the experts want to reassure us these guys behave more like the beloved charlotte my name is charlotte charlotte a cavatica then the giant queen are going to have to learn to appreciate spiders because this spider isn't going anywhere.
They uh are actually very very timid and it turns out they're more timid than most of your native spiders despite those reassurances the spread of the juror spider is just the latest insect invasion turning heads last spring it was a blanket of cicadas well they created plenty of commotion the cicadas are supposed to be here the murder hornets spotted in 2020 and the jurors are not so what exactly is going on with these invasive species global economy is translating into a global biota so as ships leave foreign ports they bring containers to this country and those containers may have objects inside that are housing or providing refuge for invasive species so that means we're gonna have a steady stream of new species winding up on our shore our bottom line even though they look scary juro spiders aren't a dangerous threat to humans or pets in fact it's unlikely they'll even bite you and if they do we're told their fangs aren't long enough to break through so there's your silver lining experts also if you walk into one of their webs and they say that's very likely because they're huge and going to be everywhere the spider will likely run away it's not going to bug you oh okay what about psychological damage that i cannot control at all one of our long time guys here on the floor jimmy corgan he said we we saw that story on the web hey thanks for watching our youtube channel find your favorite recipes celebrity interviews uplifting stories
