spider bites…..talk about painful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

September 24th, 2008 by weinstcl · 1 Comment · Biology

You usually dont see these lil or big eight legged arachnids by sight when they bite you, but spiders like to pray on you when u cant whacked them, which is practically when  you are asleep. Other spiders like the Daddy Long Legs , and others dont bite, but eat other prey that can affect your home.

Especially in the winter time in the dorms, i had experienced the painful, disgusting spiderbites. They were really painful and i had to be taken to the emergency room for some antibiotics, when you get a spider bite the best thing to do is put warm cloth on it , and  take really hot showers to help cleanse off the venom…so that it may heal faster and stronger….here is more information about these spider bites…read it here!!!

    Last year i had gotten a spider bite,and as you stated i didn’t see or feel it. I had to got to the doctors three times and each time i got 2 shots plus a switch of antibiotics. Finally,i got rid of it,but had to go to urgent care in order to do that. This article is very true and it taught me how to help an insect bite.

    This article also taught me that a fire ant attaches its jaws to your skin,which is why it stings. I had no idea that is why it stung.
    There is not only spiders out there that can harm,but many others.This article informs me to be well prepared, and to heal the fastest,most helpful way.
