Kentucky Post Office Invaded By Deadly Spiders Closes

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- The planned reopening of a Louisville post office has been postponed indefinitely as officials deal with a brown recluse spider infestation.
The Postal Service closed the Fairdale Post Office after venomous spiders were found there. Officials had hoped to open the office again next week, maintenance supervisors want to examine several outside openings to the building to make certain the problem is resolved.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website says the venom of a recluse can cause a severe lesion by destroying skin tissue, requiring medical attention.
