If you were flying out of KCI last Saturday you may have noticed some flight delays. Huh, I wonder why that was? Oh, nothing much, just a SPIDER ATTACK.
There may have been as many as five flights delayed about 15 minutes after air traffic controllers were bombarded with an infestation of spiders.
Three employees were bitten by the spiders last week at the Air Traffic Control Center in Olathe, Kan., which controls the air space around Kansas City.
On Saturday, air traffic controllers had to evacuate and moved to another area of the building.
Exterminators found a spider’s nest egg that had likely hatched.
“You’re talking in some spider cases up to 400 and in large breeds, you’re talking 1000’s from one mom,” CJ Workman with Schendel Pest Control said.
Small things with attitude, spiders, sometimes children, terrify me. Spiders especially. They simply do not care.
