Hahn's six-eyed sand spider is a medium-to-large spider that lives in deserts and sandy places in southern Africa. It rests flat against the ground or under a little loose soil, and its velvety hairs let it blend in almost perfectly. Its bite can be medically significant, but people rarely come across it.1

It lives in sandy areas, usually under stones, buried in sand at the entrances of animal burrows, or at the base of rock overhangs and cliff faces. It is found in deserts, grassland, fynbos, Karoo and savanna. People are unlikely to meet it because it is reclusive and prefers untouched, open land.1

毒液之力

咬伤

它咬的时候,毒液通过毒牙或牙齿出来。

它的毒液会造成什么?

All Hexophthalma spiders produce venom with dermonecrotic effects, which means it can destroy skin and tissue. The damage is caused by proteins related to sphingomyelinase D, which are found in the venom of all sicariid spiders. For this species, the detailed effects on humans are unknown, because its venom has mainly been studied in the laboratory.1

它对人有多危险?

对人的危险: 严重被咬了要去看医生。死亡非常罕见。

The spider is capable of a medically significant bite. Serious or even life-threatening wounds are possible, especially if the wound becomes infected or the venom spreads through the body. No bites from this spider in southern Africa have been proven, and contact with people is considered unlikely.1

它害怕时会做什么?

It relies on stillness and camouflage rather than running, and it can shift quickly across loose sand when disturbed.1

如果它咬人

  • 清洗咬伤处,用冰袋冷敷止痛。如果疼得厉害、疼痛扩散或感到不适,就去看医生。

一定先拨打你的急救电话(112、000、911)。这里是一般急救指导,不是医疗建议。 急救基础

注意安全

  • 永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物,即使是很小的,即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
  • 给它留出空间。如果遇到它,保持冷静,慢慢后退,让它走自己的路。
  • 如果被它咬了:保持冷静,保持不动,拨打你的急救电话(112、000、911)或尽快去医院。记住它长什么样,拍张照片会有帮助。

它不是冲着你来的。它用毒液捕猎或保护自己,而且它更愿意躲起来。 更多安全知识
