The rise of false widow spiders has led to a significant increase in hospital admissions for spider bites in England.
Something so tiny and trivial if ignored could have led to my thumb or hand being removed, or sepsis could have set in. They don't know if the bite was the infection or if the bite was the catalyst for the infection to take hold. Some people are hypothesising that it could have been a false widow spider but in reality, we don't know.
