What spider has the most deadly bite?
What's the Most Venomous Spider? The Brazilian Wandering Spider (Phoneutria nigriventer) has such a strong venom that only 0.006mg will kill a mouse.What are the Most Deadly Spiders?Of the 35,000 species of spiders, only 27 species are known to have caused human fatalities. In the USA their is the Brown Recluse (Loxosceles reclusa) and the Black Widow (Latrodectus hesperus). The venom of a Black Widow spider is 15 times as toxic as the venom of a prairie rattlesnake. The bite from a black widow spider is not automatically fatal. In fact, less than 1% of all people bitten by this spider run the risk of dying, and most of them are saved with the use of antivenin.
Why is horse serum used for snake bites?
Simply because a horse is a large animal, who's immune system can cope with being injected with small doses of venom. The amount injected is no-where near enough to cause the animal to suffer - but enough to 'trick' the horse's immune system to produce anti-bodies to fight the toxins. The horse's blood is 'harvested' after allowing the immune system sufficient time to produce large quantities of anti-bodies. The fluid is then spun in a centrifuge to separate out the different blood components. The anti-bodies are kept - and 'grown' in a laboratory to make large quantities of anti-venin..
What to do when a boa constrictor bites you?
nothing u can relly do but rush to the hospital and get a shot or the venim will rush through your body within a hour or so.Answer 2:Wrong, Boas have no venom. If its just a strike, then don't worry you'll live. If it clamps on to you then don't pull it off, either spray with room temp water on the head until it releases or pour a small amount of vinegar on to your skin close to the bite and tip it slowly into contact with the boas mouth.Answer 3:Yes, boas do not have venom and trying to pull the boa off will do alot more damage if it is even possible i have been bit by a boa in a animal science class and the teacher sprayed perfume in its face and it realsed but i do believe the vinegar would work also not so sure about the water.

How do you treat a mosquito bite on a dog?
I have no idea how to treat mosquito bites, and I wonder if After-Bite, an ammonia solution, isn't harmful to puppies. There are so many contradictory "mosquito remedies" online that I don't know what to believe. Baking soda, vinegar (?), and/or some ice might be a natural remedy? Some sources say tea tree or lavender oil. Supposedly, if the puppy is carrying heart worm larvae, the mosquito might incubate the larvae and later transmit infectious parasites into the puppy. It sounds like HIV activating into the AIDS virus, but what makes the larvae mature in the mosquito carrying blood?
Is a baby snake just as poisonous as an adult snake?
The answer to this commonly asked question is NO. Now don't mistake this answer as saying they are not dangerous, because they most certainly are. Baby rattlesnakes are born with venom and fangs in-tact, and can deliver a life threatening bite. Now were this idea probably comes from, is because baby rattlesnakes are more likely to bite than most adult rattlesnakes. This is due to the fact that they are small and therefore more vunerable to falling prey to a larger animal. Also, as babies, they are more likely to deliver a full dose of venom, whereas an older rattlesnake may only deliver a small portion, or even no venom at all (refered to as a dry bite) for defensive purposes. In escence, there is a higher probability of receiving a bad bite from a baby vs. an adult. You can figure that 99% of bites from babies will result in envenomation compared to maybe 85% of adult bites. However, a bite from an adult rattlesnake can be far more dangerous having a much greater venom yield than a baby, easily 10 times as much or more. Of course, there are many variables to consider including venom toxicity, venom yield, temperments, and locations as to the danger of various rattlesnakes. But ALL rattlesnake bites are to be considered a life threatening medical emergency. Don't wait to see if maybe you got lucky and received a dry bite. Seek medical attention immediately with any rattlesnake bite as the sooner you begin treatment, the better your chances of surviving and minimizing long term complications.
