Exactly. So how would you know? This is probably a myth but apparently spiders go into your mouth to drink saliva.

And we're not talking about common house spiders at all, we're talking money spiders and the like.

I hate those spiders with really small bodies and 10 inch legs.

You can feel them crawling over you at night, I bet I ate those bastards and not the money spiders.

I once went into an abandoned tunnel system in Spain near La Manga, it was literally covered with millions of that type of spider, i have photos of it somewhere, very creepy.
