That time of the year has come back around. It is spider season, but why do spiders choose this time and can UK spiders hurt you? Prof Adam Hart from the University of Gloucester gives us the lowdown.
Instant Genius is a bite-sized masterclass in podcast form. In this week's episode, we talk to Adam Hart, an entomologist and professor from the University of Gloucester.
He explains the reasons that we start to notice so many spiders at this time of the year in the UK, and whether spiders are actually any harm to us.
