Are Hobo spiders really dangerous or it's just bad reputation?

Hobo spiders (from Western Europe) are dangerous, but their bites are rarely affective. The dry bites that have no poison and are hardly noticeable. Most of the time when there is poison it starts out looking like a mosquito bite, but it begins to blister and ooze a liquid and leave a permanent scar. Systematic reactions are: headaches, nausea, throwing up, pain and flu like symptoms. If not taken care of or if it is serious, it may lead to loss or failure, amputation, and skin graft. If bitten at fatty areas, it heals in 2 to 3 years. Long story short, yes and no.

It is dangerous and should be avoided. But it is not fatal unless it goes untreated for a long time.

In the United States, the hobo spider has been considered to be a dangerous species, based on a toxicology study on rabbits (wherein venom was harvested from the hobo spider and injected into the rabbits) produced necrotic lesions [2], although attempts to replicate the original study have all failed. It is also unknown whether rabbits and humans have similar reactions to hobo spider venom; they do not react the same, for example, to the venom of Sydney funnel-web spiders, and even in the original study, two different breeds of rabbits reacted differently, one failing to develop lesions.

While the purported effects of hobo spider bites can go so far as to include necrosis, they are not known to be fatal to healthy humans. The necrosis in the reported cases is similar to, but less serious than, the necrosis caused by the brown recluse spider.

We used to get them in our home.

i don't know becuase i never seen any spider yet i will soon
