really strange question, my friends want to go to cancun for a holiday, now I have a really bad phobia of certain tropical eight legged things, (hard for me to actually say or type what they are, they begin with a T, hope you get this!) would I actually come into contact with any? I know they live in mexico and brazil and any tropical country, but do they venture to the beach resorts?
I know this might be sounding quite mad to people but there is no way I can go if there is the slightest chance I might see one!!
When we were there, we never saw any 8 legged things at all, regardless of what letter they began with
I also hate those 8 legged things - I prefer to see Dragonflies - they're much more prettier!
I wouldn't think you'll see anything like this unless you ventured off on some sort of jungle safari. Stayed in Mexico 2 years ago and never saw any s-----s at all. I'm not taking the mick as my daughter has the same phobia as you.
thanks for your replies, i know it's irational!
I don't think its irrational. Everyone has a phobia about something. Mine is ...... plug holes and cleaning toilets! I just don't like them, I have to get my partner to clean them for me. I just can't look into them and I just can't face having to clean them! Total madness isn't it? You're not along with your phobia.
I don't like them either, was one of my worries about going to Cuba but didn't see any at all of any size
Been to Cancun twice and Playacar once, never saw anything like that, the only big thing we saw was a beautiful Turtle laying her eggs on the beach, what a wonderful sight.
I share your fear, and i am well aware that they are very popular in the dom rep but i have never seen one to date, fingers crossed!...however when in cayo coco cuba last year my husband saw one as big as his hand resting in the water feature in the bar area of our hotel....
