Spider like insect
2 Answers
I have just been bitten by an insect that moves like a spider, but on closer inspection only has 6 legs and 2 small wings, but doesn't fly. Its about 1cm long, pale brown and a small black bit on its back end. Does anyone know how I can find out what it is? Am I going to die?????
