Black Widow Spider and Venom

Updated on February 7, 2015

Most Venomous Spider in North America

The black widow is one of the most feared spiders. The female black widow is the most venomous spider in North America, yet will rarely harm a human. Only if she feels threaten will she strike. The poison from the venom is such a small amount to a human that less than one percent of those bitten have had succumb to death.

Black widows tend to weave the largest spider webs. Usually about 12 inches in diameter and tend to be closer to ground level. Though not always. Their webs are often funnel shaped and uneven. They love to create there homes in damp places, the basement, around outdoor furniture, crawl spaces and around foundations.

If bitten by a black widow, seek medical attention.

Aren't We All Spiders Crawling Around on the Web

On the internet, we are very much like spiders. Some of us are black widow spiders. Some of us are a different variety of spiders. The venous spider goes out to the target. Grab the business with one bite, take hold of the customers and not let go until they will be with the black widow for a long time. The black widow is not afraid to spend money and take risk.

In business, the non-venomous spider needs to move more cautiously. Money could be too tight to spend. Proof that this is the right move must be present. This spider is cautious and must build his or her own web at a steady but slow pace. This spider has built many webs in the past; only to have it tore down in one sweep. She will say, "What if I invest all this money to become successful and fail?"

There is no winning or losing spiders with marketing. Unless you give up and wither away in some corner. You need to find the right strategies to make you the winner.
