I don't think we should just rule out the spider playing a part in this. Sometimes it can show up later in life, just because your spider is fine doesn't mean others will be. Some spiders have nero issues so bad they can't even strike.That said it could be anything, maybe stress or exposure to chemicals could be at play here.
