Published = 1992 2nd Ed. 1996
Review written = 30/april/1998
32 A4 pages Personally I try to promote insects as beautiful and amazing so calling a book "Extremely Weird Insects" was not getting off to a good start, though I appreciate the selling power of the title there are two many forces telling kids that bugs are weird already. However I could easily forgive the title if the book was amazing, but it is not, it contains a few nice photos and some varyingly accurate text. It is large format and colourful, each of the 15 insects gets 2 pages to itself and there appear to be some children's drawings inset to several of the pages. Value for money? I suppose so but not excellent. The insects chosen are not in fact particularly weird except to the minds of the uneducated, all a reasonable common with straight-forward life cycles. The design is not stunning, and in some places is a little confusing. An inset on the wings and halteres of flies is on page 10, a page otherwise devoted to

Spiders - June 16, 1999
Arizona Cooperative Extension, Yavapai County
When we were children, Little Miss Muffet taught us all to be deathly afraid of spiders. To make matters worse, any time a person has a serious reaction to a bite of unknown origin, it is usually blamed on a spider. Yes, they can bite. On the positive side, they are voracious predators that consume a variety of insect pests in the home and garden. In this column, I'll see what I can do to improve the image of spiders.
Now for the spider anatomy lesson. Unlike insects, which have six legs and three body parts, spiders have eight legs and two body parts. The front body part is called the cephalothorax and the rear is called the abdomen. Most spider have eight simple eyes (as opposed to compound eyes) on the front of the cephalothorax. In addition to four pairs of legs, they have one pair of pedipalps or leg-like sensory organs. To the rear of the abdomen are spinnerets that produce the silk for making webs and egg sacs.
All spiders are predators: they eat insects, other spiders, and related arthropods. While some species spin webs to capture prey, others stalk prey on the ground or vegetation and pounce upon them. Web spinning spiders usually prey on beetles, bugs, flies, moths and leafhoppers. Ground dwelling spiders prey on crickets (many people don't realize that crickets are destructive household and garden pests), mites, and beetles.
Spiders are closely related to insects and just a susceptible to insecticides, but I don't recommend using them intentionally on spiders. A broom or vacuum cleaner is effective in controlling spiders in the home. Outdoors, they are usually barely noticeable. Wood piles, crawlspaces, and cellars are likely place to watch for black widows and they tend not to bit unless you touch them or disturb their web.

For then they may be doing your post. The widow spiders belong to the genus Latrodectus . There are five species found in North America north of Mexico. The “black widow” for many years was considered to be a single species but since is now recognized to be represented by three species, which are very similar in appearance and habitat. These three widow spiders are the Southern black widow Latrodectus mactans (Fabricius), the Western black widow L. hesperus L. variolus (Walckenaer). The widow spiders are the most notorious of all spiders. L. geometricus

Spiders
by G.R. Nielsen and G.B. MacCollom, Former Extension Entomologists, Plant and Soil Science Department
Spiders are insect-related arthropods with jointed legs and an exoskeleton. They have a common ancestry with the pseudo scorpions, scorpions, harvestmen, ticks, mites, etc. They differ from insects by having only two body regions, (a united head and thorax, and an abdomen) and 8 legs. (Insects have a head, thorax, and abdomen and 6 legs.) Spiders are predators, feeding on living insects, mites, etc. Spiders subdue their prey by injecting poisonous saliva through their fangs. Most spiders are beneficial to humans preying on destructive pests. Most people associate two things with spiderswebs and bites. All spiders spin silk. Webs serve for support, hold egg sacs, trap prey, or alert the spider. The web may also be used as a balloon or parachute to transport them from one location to another. Spider bites sound more ominous than the facts support. Although all spiders are poisonous, only a few species are poisonous to humans (Black Widow, Brown Recluse). There are no poisonous spiders in Vermont, although one could arrive in baggage or vehicles at any time. However, some spiders may bite, leaving a small reddened dot or welt on an arm or leg. Unfortunately, the fancied threat of bites, spider webs, and the general presence of these creatures is an annoyance to most people. Spiders may be found almost everywhere: on or near water, in vegetation and structures, from underground to mountain tops. The black widow, the most common poisonous U.S. species (not in Vermont), is found in sheltered places (woodpiles, garages, cellars, under porches, in ventilators and rainspouts, and behind meters). The female is marked by a red hourglass-shaped spot on the underside of the round, jet-black abdomen.

Bulletin #7150 Beneficial Insects and Spiders in Your Maine Backyard I nsects, spiders, predatory mites, and other arthropods are considered beneficial when they eat arthropods that humans consider undesirable. Few arthropods are actually pests; of all insect species, over 97 percent of those usually seen in the home landscape are either beneficial or are “innocent bystanders.” Managing our yards as habitat for beneficial arthropods—commonly called “natural enemies” or “beneficials”—is a great way to minimize pest problems, often greatly reducing or eliminating pesticides. This fact sheet describes a long-term, systems-wide approach to manage arthropod pests Predators and Parasitoids Of all insect species, over 97 percent of those usually seen in the home landscape are either beneficial or are “innocent bystanders.” There are two categories of beneficial arthropods: predators and parasitoids. Both can effectively control insect and mite pests in your home landscape.

Introduction
Spiders and insects belong to the phylum Arthropoda and have similar characteristics, including segment appendages, i.e., legs, a segmented body that is divided into two or three more or less distinct regions, and a hard exoskeleton. Although similarities exist, they are not in the same group or class. Insects are in the class Insecta, and spiders are in the class Arachnida. Mention spiders and people might have several initial thoughts and reactions. Some might think of the large circular webs that are evident through the summer and fall seasons. However, some spiders never build a web and use speed (wolf spiders) or stealth (crab spiders) to catch their prey. Some people will think of the venomous nature of spiders. While it is true all spiders have jaws, called chelicera, and venom glands, the vast majority of spiders do not have a venom that is toxic to humans. Two spiders capable of injecting a toxic venom are the brown recluse and the black widow. This publication will deal with the biology and control of these two spiders around homes and landscapes in Mississippi.
Brown Recluse (Loxosceles reclusa)
Description
The body of this spider, excluding the legs, is between 3/8 of an inch (9.5 mm) and 1/2 of an inch long (12.7 mm) and 3/16 of an inch (5 mm) wide. The legs are long and slender, making the body appear larger than its actual size. Coloration is variable, but generally it is brown to yellowish brown, with the abdomen darker than the cephlothorax.

Web Camp
Fifteen adult literacy and ESOL practitioners were selected from New York, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., Maryland, Massachusetts, Vermont and Rhode Island to participate in a summer "Web Camp" to learn Web publishing skills. The goal of the camp is to provide accomplished curriculum writers with Web design skills in order to produce Web materials for low-level or low- intermediate ESOL students. The camp will be held in Brattleboro, Vermont, from July 30 to August 4. Registration is closed for the 2000 season.
