Are spiders dangerous?

Are spiders dangerous?

In general, spiders are not dangerous. There are 45,000 species of spiders worldwide, but only about 30 can cause a serious bite.

So you can pick up any random spider and say with 99.9 percent confidence that it's not dangerous.

Even in Australia, the last recorded fatality from a spider bite was in 2018 and the previous one was in 1979, although this is partly due to effective anti-venom treatment.

In the UK, only 12 of the 650 native species have fangs that can pierce human skin.

None are worse than a wasp sting, but there is no single identifying feature that distinguishes them from the harmless species./ CNA
