– Gord used our broom to gently escort this uninvited house guest out the door but not before I had an opportunity to grab my camera and get my Photo Journalism Friday shot. Hopefully he doesn’t come back!
Could that give you a good bite? Would it be poisonous?

Yes and yes. The tarantulas here are not known to be aggressive though. All tarantulas have venom but it is similar to a bee and not dangerous unless of course you are alergic. These are a burroughing species of tarantula so they rarely take up residence in your home but they may come for a visit from time to time.
