Yes

It's poison is deadly but it's fangs cannot penetrate our skin.

These can last for months and flare up when your defences are down. It's generally believed that the reaction is caused by the fact that White Tails feed on Daddy Long Legs, although others think that it is caused by infection from the fact that White Tails live in dirt, generally being found in gardens.

What is the life cycle of the white-tailed spider?

After mating with a male, the female spider produces an egg sac that can contain up to a thousand tiny spider eggs. The egg sac is made of silk, and the color varies from species to species. In some species, the female spider carries the egg sac on her spinnerets or in her jaws until the eggs hatch. In other species, the egg sac is hidden under a rock, attached to a plant stalk, or encased in a web. Tiny spiderlings (baby spiders) hatch from the eggs - they look like tiny versions of an adult spider. Some spiderlings are on their own and receive no care from their mother. Other spiders climb onto their mother's back after hatching, where she feeds them. In some species, the mother dies when the young are ready to go off on their own, and the spiderlings eat her carcass.

Trap door spiders live in burrows in the ground, or crevices in the bark of trees for protection. The construction of their home is made from a tube spun with silk, with a trapdoor made from plant materials and soil, held together by more silk. Their camouflage is very effective, however spider wasps actively seek them out, tussle with them, and then paralyse them with a single sting. They will then lay a single egg, and when it hatches the larvae will eat the spider alive, good for the wasp but gruesome for the spider.

What is a round black six-legged biting bug?

Tick-like black bug South TexasI have no idea what this bug is but I have been bitten 3 times by these vicious 1/4" black, hard-shelled, oval/round shaped body, 6-legged bug along the creek bed and through tall grasses in South Texas. Hard-shelled and flat like a unfed tick but all black. Also, the body seemed more oval like - not interrupted with a beady little tick head and the legs were evenly distributed around the body -not 4 in front 2 in back. I felt the nasty bite immediately and really had to pry the creature off - no welt , but it definitely broken through the skin and left a redden bite mark that doesnt seem to go away. Fully clothed, I was bitten once on the stomach and twice on the neck. Sure would like to know what this is.
