Spider Control @ Ermones®Spiders are arachnids not insects, but both spiders and insects belong to the largest group of animals on Earth, the arthropods - animals with hard external skeletons and jointed limbs (greek arthro = joint, podos = footed). Spider bites and venomsSpider venoms are a cocktail of many chemicals. Some are toxins, which evolved in order to kill or immobilise arthropods like insects by attacking their nervous systems; others help break down the victim's tissues so the spider can ingest a liquefied meal. Unfortunately, a few of these chemicals can be seriously toxic to people. But in general, spider venoms cause us no more than mild local pain and inflammation. Toxins which attack nerves

Both
Funnel-web and Redback Spider venoms contain toxins that attack our nervous
system (neurotoxins), usually by interfering with nerve impulse
transmission, so disrupting many of the body's functions. In extreme cases,
this can result in death due to respiratory or circulatory failure.
