Nope. At least, not unless you have some unusual and severe allergy. No person has ever died from a tarantula bite.

You might want to put the words “tarantula bite” into Google and seeing what turns up.

I was just seeing what everyone would say. You are correct, no one has died of a tarantula bite, unless allergic or very very young or old. The average person woudl easily survive a bite.

This raises another question. Many say that a taranula bite is no worse than a bee sting. Right or wrong?

Right and wrong (but more wrong).

There are over 800 different species of tarantula, and all of them are venomous. But they tend to have stronger venow than a bee. The average healthy man would be in more pain fomr a Tarantula than a bee. Some tarantulas can cause numbness in major body parts for up to 24 hours after the bite. other will just sting for an hour or two.

but none will kill you.

There’s also the consideration that the typical tarantula is pumping a greater volume of toxin into the victim than a bee is. The spider can also bite multiple times before you get around to removing/killing it.

Just food for thought.
