A member asked:
For reference, how does spider transmit diseases to humans? is it because of the ingestion of eggs? how do you know if you contract the disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spiders don't: Spiders do not transmit disease to humans. A bite from a venomous spider such as a Black Widow or Brown Recluse can cause, at times, serious symptoms that are usually treated with supportive care. Ticks, mosquitos and fleas transmit a number of diseases.
