The Brazilian whiteknee tarantula is a large spider from Brazil, known for the bright white bands on its legs. It is often kept as a pet because it is hardy and striking to look at. Its size means that even though its venom is not medically significant, a bite can still damage tissue.1

Tge fa ses tissi?

The venom is not considered medically significant. Because this tarantula is large, its bite can still cause tissue damage. It bites mainly when provoked, and it defends itself first with urticating hairs, which are fine hairs that irritate human skin.1

Its venom is not considered medically significant, but its large size means a bite can cause tissue damage. Its urticating hairs can also be quite irritating to human skin.1

Tge fa el, cura ch'el ha tema?

It is usually somewhat defensive and flicks urticating hairs at threats. Biting is typically not its first line of defence.1

Sch'el morda

Lava la morsa e sfradenta ella. Tschertga agid medicinal, sche las dolurs èn fermas u sche la persuna na sa senta betg bain.

Like most tarantulas found in the Americas, it uses urticating hairs to defend itself.1

It grows fast, usually taking around 3 to 4 years to reach full size as a female.1

It has been prized as a pet because of its size, hardiness and striking colours.1
