Oooh boy there’s a lot of spiders around right now.

Actually they're always around, just not obvious to you.

If spiders freak you out.. Just take it easy.. There’s really no need.

Just ask the Burke Museum's Rod Crawford…he’s been correcting arachnids bad wrap for decades in the ‘Spider Myths’ section of the Burke Museum website.

We visited him at the Burke to talk about the spiders we’re seeing right now and to try to coexist with them… and maybe even enjoy them.
