Can camel spider bites affect humans?
There are many types of camel spiders. Their bite is generally considered to be non-venomous. Even so, they can give a nasty bite, especially when they feel threatened. And their bite is not a 'clean' bite, but it makes a nasty tear in the skin. What is more, camel spiders don't brush their teeth... so expect the wound to become badly infected by bacteria! In a worse case scenario, someone who has been bitten by a camel spider may face a life-threatening situation and have to be hospitalised for several months! (See Related links below)
