Mouse Spider

The mouse spider lives in Australia and is known for its large fangs. Spooky! Indeed, they bite if provoked. Some of the species’ bites produced symptoms similar to the funnel web spider. Though, they are typically less aggressive than the funnel web. Actually, if you’re lucky you’ll get a dry bite without venom! Um, we’ll take no bites, is that an option?

False Widow Spider

Just when you thought we covered all the widow spiders, we got another for you! Apparently, the false widow is the most venomous of spiders found in England. The site of a bite can swell as big as a tennis ball. Thankfully, only one death has been recorded from this spider thus far. Though experts are still debating how deadly the false widow’s venom is in reality.
