    no I would never own something like that you would have to be allergic for them to do anything and then it would be the allergies fault you died.
    There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it.

    i've been bit by a rose hair before
    its just really uncomfortable, and hoenstly, it happened when i was like 11. So it was probably me over-reacting, i doubt it'd hurt that bad if i were to get bit now.

    Dont think there is an antivenin for most that might call for it. Since the bulk are relativly harmless (barring allergies) a very very few species do have medically significant venom that could easily send you to medical help if for no other reason than pain relief. People just don't die from Tarantula bites (unless allergic reactions are involved). Some of those have massive fangs and I'd bet it WOULD hurt lol. Mt rosehair hasn't bitten but has dragged herself up my arm once using her fangs (liek she was playing cripple or something). It felt like jabs from a pin and a little blood welled up - but it was clear she wasn't in attack mode or anything.

    i honestly think getting hairs is probably a more likely and painful thing than a bite

    i had a striped knee that got my hand/wrist just full of hairs.....it wasn't fun, lol
