Visitors to the Cambodian town of Skuon had better watch out for tarantulas - not just scurrying over their toes... but also in their meals.
The market town has been so overrun with the eight-legged creepy crawlies they have taken to eating them.
Known as "Spider Town", the insects were running all over surfaces in the area and dropping onto people's heads.
But in a gruesome fervour of resourcefulness by the locals the arachnids are now becoming a tasty snack - deep fried and served with a pinch of herbs on a bed of noodles or rice.
