Like some other spiders they inject their venom by biting people. If you get bitten by one of these creatures you should see a physician immediately. Try to collect the specimen
so that your physician can identify what medication. Signs that a person has been bit could be that the skin around the bite becomes red and swollen. After that most of the tissue dies or fades away. You usually don’t feel the bite until 5-8 hours later. Sometimes it could be days until feel the pain and months for the bite to heal. Not many people die from these bites.
