Milo Plurnbottom 6 months ago |

Don’t get bit! But if you someone around you does, here are some symptoms to look for with a black widow spider bite.

From the description at YouTube:

A bite from a black widow spider may cause paralysis of a limb, brown and white splotches around the location of the bite, an altered level of consciousness and swelling of the throat or mouth. Discover why a black widow bite may cause symptoms that mimic allergic reactions with help from an EMT in this free video on spider bites.
