Baby Spiders Scatter From Nest in Amazing Footage [VIDEO]

When baby spiders are huddled together in their nest, they may appear to be a ball of tiny black-eyed peas. But when disturbed they will scatter, much like how these eight-legged creatures did when poked at by a homeowner.

They seem harmless -- kind of like at the end of 'Charlotte's Web'! -- and the jaunty music serves to take a good deal of the creepiness out of these crawlies.

Don't get us wrong; we're not about to go searching for a spider nest to play with, but it certainly is fascinating to watch them from the comfort of the web. The internet, that is.
