Title: 5 Most Poisonous Spiders to Ever Walk the


1
5 Most Poisonous Spiders to Ever Walk the Earth
2
Brazilian Wandering Spider
  • Their Greek name is Phoneutria, which means
    murderess. That alone should tip you off on how
    lethal they are.
  • Their venom contains a neurotoxin which is
    recorded to be the deadliest till date.
  • It produces 1.069 mg of venom a day and it takes
    just a fraction of that amount to kill a human.

3
Six-Eyed Sand Spider
  • Also called assassin spiders. Their venom wont
    kill you, but will cause enough pain that you
    would wish you were dead.
  • The venom causes the prey to leak blood from
    every open pore of their skin.
  • There is no antivenom found for it yet and no one
    is sure exactly how toxic their venom is.

4
Brown Recluse Spider
  • Do not judge these spiders by their name, as they
    do not always live in solitude.
  • The Recluse spider prefers staying borrowed in
    dark places - under the furniture or amidst piles
    of books.
  • Their bite is known to cause retinal failure,
    fever, vomiting and can eve be fatal.

5
Funnel-Web Spiders
  • The Funnel-Web Spider has to be the most
    notorious member of the arachnid family.
  • Their venom can be deadly and will cause a series
    of symptoms to show up in less than 15 minutes.
  • Symptoms include numbness of mouth and lips,
    drooping eyelids, difficulty in breathing, and
    even falling into a coma.

6
Red-Back Spider
  • The Red-Back Spider is just like any other
    eight-legged critter, except that they like to
    snack on kids and old people.
  • Male Redbacks are not as venomous as female
    spiders.
  • Their venom can make people sick causing nausea,
    fever and severe pain.
