Do house spiders bite?

Question

OMG PLZ TELL ME!!!!

I JUST FOUND A SPIDER BY MY COMPUTER AND IT PASSED THROUGH MY HAND AND MY DAD HATES WHEN I KILL THEM, SO I WANT TO KNOW IF THEY BITE.

Answer 1

Many people find spiders repulsive and scary, yet the majority of spiders are harmless and beneficial. Only four kinds of spiders are known to cause health problems in the U.S.

Spiders are far more beneficial than they are dangerous. The benefits we realize from spiders preying on insects, mites, and other spiders far outweigh the low potential health hazard to humans.

Answer 2

Most do, but some don't.

It's just like a mosquito bite most the time though- no biggy.

Answer 3

It depends on what kind of spider some bite and some don't.  Most the ones in WA state or that are not in the desert don't bite. Hope this helps!!
