Spiders |
Common Spiders
Spiders also have spinnerets, or silk glands, from which they secrete silk to build webs, drop lines, and shelters. The webs are used to catch insects for food, many of which (such as flies and mosquitoes) are harmful to humans. So as a group, spiders are considered beneficial animals. Many spiders will bite if they are threatened, however, and these bites can cause serious discomfort or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. In addition, two species of spider in particular can inflict harmful bites which can even be fatal on occasion.
Black Widow Spiders
Black widow live in dark places such as in drain pipes, under logs, in manholes, and in other secluded places. They are found throughout North America from Florida and California to southern Canada. Black widow bites often cause severe pain, cramping, nausea, vomiting, and increased blood pressure and heart rate. Black widow bites should be treated as a medical emergency, but they rarely are fatal in humans.\
Brown Recluse Spiders
Brown recluse spiders hide in dark, secluded areas. When disturbed, they can inflict a painful bite that sometimes quickly develops into a "bulls eye" pattern, with a blister in the middle of a red ring. When the blister breaks, a scab forms over the wound. In some cases, brown recluse spider bites can result in a more serious condition in which the wound ulcerates, and surrounding tissue is progressively destroyed. In these cases, medical attention (and sometimes surgery) is necessary.
