Spiders crawl into your mouth when sleeping

[ReaperS_ParadoX]

I read somewhere that spiders crawl into your mouth while your sleeping, although I don't see how they could get in if you sleep with your mouth closed. Is this true or just a myth??

Be reassured, It is but an urban myth.

Here is a link which will give you an answer:

But I'd suggest you leave the creepy crawly questions at this, before we can show some very true stats and pictures of things that do surround you while you sleep.

Understood _Only, that stuff terrifies me, but its good to hear the spider one is a myth

I remember reading in one of the bathroom readers that the average person swallows one spider per month. I guess uncle John is full of crap.

Couldn't resist.....

From your head to your toes, your body is a veritable jungle of flora and fauna. Some are visitors, some are permanent residents, but all are enough to make the average person queasy. Whether we like or not, our bodies are perfect environments for the creepy and crawly. For hundreds of thousands of years, these animals have called our bodies home—or at least "food." This list isn't comprehensive, but it will give you a taste of the pests that are having a taste of you.
