Curbing The Populace

Somehow or other, bacteria and other tiny organisms manage to find food. Usually they just evolve the ability to eat whatever they can find in abundance. Hence, flesh-eating superbacteria... which will have billions and billions served!

Nature always finds a way.

that's what happened to my mom, via a spider bite in our very own backyard.

Your mom got flesh eating bacteria???????

sort of, yes. (http://www.news-medical.net/?id=5191)

almost lost her leg, and could have died.

That was probably cellular necrosis caused by a severe reaction to the spider venom. It can happen when people get bitten by Brown Recluse Spiders, I believe.
