What to do if you see a tarantula in San Diego County NBC 7 San Diego
Furry, eight-legged arachnids may be more visible in San Diego County this time of year, the San Diego County Parks Department says, but don’t be alarmed: They re just minding their own business trying to find some love.
NBC 7 has received video of several close encounters between San Diego County residents and tarantulas. In one, a tarantula appeared near a trailhead for Mount Fortuna. In another, the arachnid was found in the backyard of a Scripps Ranch home, which was in a canyon-like area. These San Diegans should consider themselves lucky they didn’t find a tarantula in their microwave.
No tarantulas to report out where we live in East County I’m afraid. I’m keeping my eyes peeled however.
