That’s why if you start finding many spiders around your house, it’s time to call a pest control expert right away to get to the root of the problem.
Drop for drop, a black widow’s venom is thought to be 15 times more potent than that of rattlesnake venom. Yet far more people have been killed by rattlesnake bites, simply because of the much higher quantity of venom injected by the snakes. Very few people bitten by a widow spider actually die, though the bite is painful.
