Welcome to Steemit <3 if you don't mind, I will keep a healthy distance from your spiders. But other than that I followed you. Have a wonderful day.

I am actually arachnophobic lol.
LOL I like them just fine when I was younger and then a couple of years ago I've got bit by a little brown spider while I was sleeping that I had seen scurrying around in my room a day or so before. It left me for little holes in my side that didn't heal for two weeks and I scratched like a mofo! Ever since then every spider is suspect.
That was a Brown Recluse. Know your spiders and it could save your life. My big Tarantula has fangs more than half an inch long so getting bitten by him will be unpleasant...
He was pretty small & I did heal, unlike some who have persistent wounds so I had no idea it may be a recluse. Ugh.
Yeah, don't get bit!
The persistent wounds actually depends on how you treat the bite and your immune system. I got bit by a sack spider (also tissue destroyer venom) on my hand once and I only got a tiny scar (super immune system)
I guess we were both lucky then. I won't be owning any spiders haha
