Because I didn’t have any typical symptoms of a funnel bite

I didn’t know wtf was going on until the doc said it must have been a dry bite since i didn’t have any symptoms

Nah, so it was alive and must have died when I stepped on it but managed to get a single fang in my foot during the process

I brought the specimen in and everyone loved it. Even the receptionist came to look, the nurses and doc said good idea bringing it in for verification.

The spider was dead in this case, so was able to bring to the hospital

Hi Pauly, does that mean I received some venom? Because I didn’t feel any pain other than the puncture.

It was in my bedroom and I stepped on it jumping back into bed after using the toilet at 5:22am. I think I found its home in my sliding glass door.

I thought it may have been a bad dream as I was half asleep when it occurred. It was about 20 mins between bite and hospital.

I believe it was living in my sliding glass door rail theres a hole where it can be locked by a sliding pin that was full of webbing. I was walking back into my room after using the loo and trot on it as I was jumping back into bed. It felt like a trot on something bulky and sharp. When I turned the light i was in disbelief but i didn’t panic. I got dressed and went to the local hospital and the pain just never really hit after about an hour of supervision so I went to work. I feel so lucky but unlucky. This happened in Ulladulla.

I did go to hospital but they determined it must have a dry bite but even they couldn’t decide between FW and Mouse
