Experts have revealed they had to remove and destroy a number of deadly spiders from a vacant house in Carlow.

The National Exotic Animal Sanctuary (NEAS) was contacted by a man who had bought them online and left them behind after he moved.

There were 100 in the house which had to be catalogued, including a number of black widow and funnel-web spiders.

The lethal ones were killed.

The NEAS is calling for new laws to crackdown on the number of dangerous creatures being bought online.
