Black Widow Spider Bites

October 31, 2008

“Although the venom of a Black Widow spider is extremely dangerous,
there are relatively few cases of fatal effects from a Black Widow
bite.

There where only sixty-three deaths reported in the United States
between 1950 and 1959. Prior to the development of antivenin, 5% of
reported bites resulted in fatalities.”
