"Venomous Giant Flying Spiders to Invade New York in 2024"

Joro spiders, giant venomous arachnids from Japan, are expected to invade the Northeast US, including New York, after initially spreading in the Southeast.

While their venom is not typically deadly to humans, it can cause discomfort and allergic reactions. Pest control experts emphasize the need for education and responsible management to coexist with these invasive spiders.
