If you mean the Australian "Redback spider," it can kill humans. There have been no deaths due to this spider since the invention of an anti-venom. There have been only 14 deaths due to the redback spider since records began to be taken.
The heavier the human, the smaller the amount of toxin per pound, so little children are in the most danger. In other words, the level of concentration of the venom in the body is relevant.
