[QUOTE="TravelerKai, post: 827288, member: 7561"] Apparently, the amount of venom injected is the difference maker. Drop for drop the spider is worse than the rattlesnake by a factor of 15, but a rattlesnake would drop in alot more volume wise. Sometimes the spiders make dry bites like some rattlesnakes do from what I just read. Snakes outside of the US never concerned me until I went into remote areas of China. I could not find any information in English hardly. Chinese people were calling the snakes all kinds of strange names like "Sleep Snake". Apparently if it bites you, you will go to sleep. Yuck. I stayed nervous and paranoid walking out there. Wiki said King Cobras were out where I was, but no one I spoke to ever saw one before in the rice fields or mountainsides. I still had nightmares that I was going to turn around and see one standing up right in my face. lol [/QUOTE]
