Authorities have considered spraying the whole area with insecticide to try and deal with the menace and have called in a science team to try and identify the species."As of now, we cannot give a specific name," said Dr L R Saikia. "It's similar to a tarantula but it could be a whole new species. But whatever the species, it is a highly aggressive spider. It leaps at anything that comes close."
