Spiders bite at night because they are most active at night.

It's not common though to get bit by a spider at night but it does happen.

Most spider bites do happen during the day though.

To stop spiders from biting you in your bed you should move your bed away from the wall and furniture and avoid putting anything under your bed.

Always shake your pillows, bed sheet, and blanket before going to your bed.

For the record, spiders are not insects but rather arachnids.

They have eight legs, and they don't have antennae.

A black widow spider is worse than a brown recluse spider because black widow spiders have a more lethal bite since it not only effects tissue but the neurological system, which can lead to death.

The brown recluse spider is also very dangerous though as well.

The brown recluse spider is one of the most dangerous spiders in the United States.

Its venom destroys the walls of blood vessels near the site of the bite, sometimes causing a large skin ulcer.

The biggest spider in the world is the goliath bird-eater spider.

The Goliath birdeater belongs to the tarantula family Theraphosidae.

Found in northern South America, it is the largest spider in the world by mass – 175 g – and body length – up to 13 cm – but it is second to the giant huntsman spider by leg span.

The worlds most deadliest spider is the wandering spider.

Wandering spiders are a family of spiders that includes the Brazilian wandering spiders.

These spiders have a distinctive longitudinal groove on the top-rear of their oval carapace similar to those of the Amaurobiidae.

They are highly defensive and venomous nocturnal hunters.

The wandering spiders bite, which delivers neurotoxic venom, can be deadly to humans, especially children, although antivenom makes death unlikely.

Because they are aggressive and have a venomous bite, it is advised not to keep this species as a pet.

This species of spider is not like Tarantulas.

Although they do have venom, they are harmless to humans.

The Wandering Spider is the world's deadliest spider.

The Wandering Spider is a large brown spider that is similar to the North American Wolf Spider but the Wandering Spider is bigger and has a more toxic venom than the American Wolf Spider.
