A possibly poisonous spider in a banana box has caused the closure of a supermarket in Krems. A pest controller is now looking for the crawling animal.
About ten centimeters in size, black and red and no longer to be found: a spider is currently causing a lot of excitement in Krems an der Donau. The branch manager of a penny market had discovered the crawling animal Tuesday morning when opening a banana box.
The branch manager immediately raised the alarm
Suspecting it might be a poisonous banana spider that had flown in with the fruit, he immediately sounded the alarm. The problem: when the fire brigade arrived, the animal could no longer be found. The branch was therefore closed for safety reasons in consultation with the investigating judge.
All boxes were collected directly on site and sealed with plastic. A pest controller was also hired to find the animal. Only when it is clear which spider species is involved will the case be reopened, according to the Rewe Group.
