How to prevent spider and bug bites when you go outdoors, is it lethal or poisonous, afraid of outdoors for this reason? what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vigilance: You have to be on the lookout for webs, avoid walking in tall grasses/weeds/bushes. Insect repellant would reduce the risk of getting bitten. Wearing long-sleeve shirts and long pants will reduce your exposure.Overall, most bug bites are not poisonous and you shouldn't be afraid of the outdoors because of it. Consider psychologic counselling re. your phobia.
