A terrified British family fled their home after hundreds of deadly spiders swarmed out from a bunch of bananas.

Jamie and Crystal Roberts in Staffordshire were horrified when they found the creepy crawlies in the bananas bought from a local shop.

Jamie initially had spotted white patches covering the fruit and assumed it was harmless mold. But when he took a closer look, he realised the bananas were infested with a spider nest containing hundreds of spiders.

Jamie fled his home with his wife and two children on the advice of the pest controllers.

The house was fumigated and the family was allowed to go back after three days.

The spiders have not been officially identified but they are believed to be the world's most poisonous Brazilian Wandering Spider.
