There are only a few Spiders in the world that can kill a human. These include the tunnel web spider of Australia, the Brazilian wandering spider, the Black Widow spider, and the Brown Widow spider. Other dangerous and deadly spiders include the Brown Recluse spider, the Six-eyed Sand spider, and the Chilean Recluse spider.
On average, about 6.5 people per year die from spider bites worldwide. However, most spider bites are not fatal, and many people do not even realize they have been bitten by a spider.
The brown recluse and the black widow spider are both spiders that can possibly kill humans. Their venom is very toxic.
No, snakes do not kill more people per year than spiders. Spiders are responsible for fewer deaths annually worldwide compared to snakes. Snakes are responsible for more human fatalities due to venomous bites than spiders.
When spiders are killed, they may release pheromones or chemicals that can alert other spiders in the vicinity to potential danger. In some cases, this may prompt aggressive behavior as other spiders respond to the perceived threat.
Two disadvantages of spiders are their venomous bites, which can be harmful or even deadly to humans, and their ability to create unsightly webs in indoor spaces. Additionally, some people have arachnophobia, a fear of spiders, which can cause anxiety and distress.
People call spiders arachnids because they belong to the class Arachnida which includes spiders, scorpions, ticks, and mites. Arachnids share common characteristics such as having eight legs, two body segments, and no antennae.
These people would be called arachnophobic. Arachnophobia is the phobia of spiders.
