Black Widows are very common throughout the state, are potentially dangerous, and are easily identifiable by their shiny black body color and red hourglass on the belly. The brown recluse, however, is an enigma: ...

Chiggers I. Definition: Chiggers are the larvae of harvest mites and belong to the family Trombiculidae. Chiggers feed on low vegetation, but they need animals as a source of protein. Chiggers do not burrow into the skin; instead they attach themselves to the opening of a hair shaft and inject saliva into the skin. When on a person, chiggers go to areas where the skin is thin and moist: the ankles, wrists, thighs, groin or waist. The mite stays in this area until feeding is complete. This ...

They live in neglected areas: attics, basements, behind and under furniture; bookcases ...

Spiders HOW DID SPIDERS GET THEIR NAME? Over 700 different kinds of spiders live in Florida. The scientific name for spiders is “Arachnid” (uh-rack-nid). That name comes from an old Greek story.

For others, spiders are a nuisance with their unsightly webs above lamps and in the corner of ceilings. Spiders are not insects, they are arachnids. They are differe ...
