According to Dr. G.B. Edwards, an arachnologist with the Florida State Collection of Arthropods in Gainesville, the brown recluse venom is twice as potent as black widow venom. However, they do not inject as much venom as a black widow, are very timid, and do not defend their web. So the info below is not truthful.

The brown recluse is way more aggressive because they will bite at the sight of anything and black widows will only bite if threatened.

Would a black widow or a brown recluse win a fight?

the brown recluse would win because of the scaring and the blue red discoloration: answer- actually I just put these two spiders in the same container and watched them fight to the death. The brown recluse didn't really do anything, but the black widow spun its web and when the brown recluse got stuck inside of i, it was game over.. the black widow attacked the brown recluse by stabbing it with it's back legs and then bit it multiple times. Now the black widow is posted up in the corner of the container full.


Is the black widow brown recluse or tarantula make the best pet?

A tarantula will be the best out of the three of them because their venom is the least potent and the tarantula is the least aggressive depending on the species,the chaco golden knee and the pinktoe tarantulas are known to be calm.But if you have to choose between a black widow or a brown recluse a black widow is better because there not fast runners,but never keep a black widow or a brown recluse because there has been recorded deaths from them but no recorded deaths on tarantula bites,so even if the tarantula is more expensive its the one that wont be able to kill you,although make sure your not allergic of bee stings or a tarantula bite can be fatal
