The brown recluse spider is one of the most dangerous spiders living here in the US, and they can be found right here in Louisiana.

Before you think it really weird, the spider, commonly known as the Kidney Garden Spider, looks a LOT like Pringle's mascot.

Louisiana has our fair share of venomous and poisonous insects, snakes, arachnids, frogs, and more. But, what's the difference between venomous vs poisonous?

Researchers are expecting millions, that's right millions of spiders the size of a child's hand to begin falling out of the sky up and down the East Coast this spring.

Summertime in Louisiana always exciting. The sunny days get us outside to enjoy all the fantastic things we love like beaches, fishing, backyard BBQ s and countless festivals.

We've got quite a few things here in Louisiana that can't wait to kill us this summer. OK, not really, but sort of.
