I thought a bit of fuzz was stuck in my seatbelt—until it twitched. That small movement quickly turned into a nightmare. My car had been invaded by Solifugae, commonly called camel spiders, sun spiders, or wind scorpions. Not Venomous, But Still Terrifying These spiders aren’t venomous. However, their speed, creepy look, and painful bite can unsettle anyone.
The Hidden Invaders The first spider hid between my seatbelt and the upholstery. Soon, I spotted more near the backseat and door hinges. They blended perfectly into the car, making them easy to miss. Their bites cause sharp pain, swelling, redness, and risk of infection if untreated.
