oh, ok kitty.
They are not venomous or only slightly.
you will recover in a few days if bitten.
they protect their eggs verociously.
They can move into your house just before, or just after the summer rains.

Tarantula: They can give a mean bite and you will suffer alot of
pain.
You will only suffer dizziness, feel a bit weak.
so, they arent that venomous.
They are in decline, cause everybody wants them as
pets.

@whtwhb...thanks for the info...but I must confess I never ask a spider if it is poisonous or not before I scream...."Kill it"...
My apologies to those spider lovers out there...I react without thinking when hysterical with fear...blushing

Nice to see you, Kitty. I am not so sure about your new friend though... just looking at his photo makes me cringe. I had one of these crawl over my hand in the garden once and I scratched away at my hand and continually washed it trying to wash away the experience. Unfortunately for me, they are common spiders and I often find them on my car... Not a great way to start my day...with my heart racing. hug
