Saving Bees with Spider Venom?
#4
Yes it's very interesting, and bio pesticides sound like the way forward.
Unfortunately, taking into account how many billions of mouths there are to feed on this planet, and knowing Humankind's usual track-record....it's likely that this knowledge could lead to serious abuse of the Australian Funnel Web Spider, maybe decimating their numbers, and causing damage, if not extinction!
Unless the toxins can be synthesised.

Same goes for the Snowdrop plant.
