For all you spider lovers out there... damookster Send a noteboard - 21/03/2017 03:48:58 PM

Per this article in The Economist, there are 25M metric tons of spiders in the world. Together they eat 400M to 800M metric tons of insects per year. That's the equivalent weight of all the human beings on the planet. That's a lot of spiders. And a hell of a lot more bugs.
