So, if you purposefully buy one of these, just to let it bite you... Isn't that technically "rigging an erection?"



A mum was scared stiff after opening a bunch of supermarket bananas and finding rare South American spiders - whose bite can give a man a four hour erection.

Shocked Maria Layton, 43, spotted the creepy crawlies after opening the bag of yellow fruit she bought from Tesco.

She found the bananas, shipped from Costa Rica, were infested with eggs from the Brazilian Wandering Spider - the most deadly in the world.

As soon as she discovered the cocoon they started to hatch so she quickly put them in a sealed container in the freezer and called Tesco customer services.

The species is deadly and its venom can kill a human in just two hours - but can also give male victims a painful four-hour erection.

Its venom is currently being studied for use in erectile dysfunction treatments.

Mother-of-two Maria went to open the bag for her eldest daughter Siri, six, but noticed there was something funny on the side of one of the bananas.

Maria said: "Tesco were a bit useless, I was really concerned about the possibility of this dangerous spider and spider eggs in my house and really wanted some helpful advice on how to act.

"I wasn't sure if other spiders or eggs had escaped when I ripped the bag open.

"I posted the picture on Tesco Facebook page and they told me to send the wrapper in so they could get the bar-code to refund me.

"I was shocked, they failed to see the potential threat to me and my family and thought I was only interested in having a pound or so back.


"I called Food Standards but they said it wasn't anything to do with them, I called Trading Standards but they were shut.
"I spent an hour-and-a-half ringing round trying to get some help - while I had this potentially killer spider in the house.

Tesco have now launched an investigation into the spider infestation.

A Tesco spokesperson said, "We’ve apologised to Mrs Layton and offered a gesture of goodwill. We’ve asked her to return the product to our store so we can conduct a full investigation."
