Hi,

I have false widows in my house. Not black widows, false widows. They are not medically significant. However, since 99% of spiders are venomous, are they toxic to bearded dragons?

Photo of 1 of my false widows attached.

Thank you.

Hello,

Wow, those definitely look like black widows but with some subtle differences.
Most of the time, spiders don't tend to be toxic to dragons other than the true poisonous
ones like the black widow or brown recluse. However, they can still have a toxic reaction
sometimes so it is best just to try & keep them from ingesting them.

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
