What’s that scuttling noise? Did something just run over my foot?
They lurk in the shadows, hide in nooks and crannies where you’ll never find them (but they’ll find you easily) and make your life miserable with their mere existence. Here are 9 of the most vile creepy-crawlies in the state of Texas.
Doesn't this guy look friendly? Although harmless, they can leave nasty blisters all over your body by just spitting on you. This is a creature I'd rather not mess with.
At first glance, these could pass for miniature potatoes with sprouts...until they start moving. Their name doesn't even begin to describe the horror of their existence.
