Bite
Toxicity Intensity
Mild
Lycosa singoriensis's venom contains neurotoxins that can induce mild symptoms in humans, such as localized pain, redness, and swelling. Adults use strong fangs to deliver venom primarily for prey immobilization and secondarily in defense. Bites to humans are rare and generally not medically significant, with no severe long-term effects. The risk to human health remains low.

Lycosa singoriensis typically has a mild level of toxicity, which primarily affects animals through stinging. This organism's sting may cause discomfort to humans and pets such as dogs and cats, while reactions can vary among different individuals. Generally, the sting might result in localized pain, swelling, and redness. Some animals may experience more intense reactions, but such occurrences are less common, and severe complications are rare with lycosa singoriensis's venom.

Harmful Facts About Lycosa singoriensis

Why are Lycosa singoriensis harmful to humans?
Lycosa singoriensis is principally a hunter that might inadvertently wander into human habitation in search of prey. As mostly terrestrial creatures, they come into contact with humans when their outdoor habitats overlap with areas of human activity. Troubles often arise from unintentional interactions, such as when a human unknowingly encroaches on lycosa singoriensis's space, provoking a defensive response.
What is the best prevention for Lycosa singoriensis?
To prevent negative encounters with lycosa singoriensis, seal cracks and gaps in homes to deter entry. Remove clutter and debris near dwellings to eliminate their hiding spots. Employ physical barriers like screens on windows and vents. Use LED lights that attract fewer insects outside, thus reducing the food source that might lure lycosa singoriensis closer to human habitats.
What are the solutions for injuries caused by Lycosa singoriensis?
In the instance of a defensive interaction with lycosa singoriensis, thoroughly cleanse the affected area with soap and water to lessen the risk of infection. Apply a cold compress to mitigate swelling and discomfort. To minimize adverse consequences, avoid disturbing their natural habitats during outdoor activities and exercise caution when moving objects under which lycosa singoriensis might reside. During recovery, refrain from scratching or irritating the affected site, ensuring a swift and less troublesome healing process.
More Insects that are Similar to Lycosa singoriensis
Anoteropsis litoralis
Anoteropsis litoralis
Anoteropsis litoralis can be distinguished from other species of Anoteropsis by its yellow dorsal surface with black markings and several unique features in the male and female reproductive organs.
Garden wolf spider
Garden wolf spider
The garden wolf spider (Anoteropsis hilaris) lives in small burrows among gardens, so it will commonly be seen running on the soil. It's an active hunter that will often take down prey larger than itself, but this species is sometimes hunted by wasps. Like other wolf spiders, these spiders can deliver an uncomfortable bite, which is not deadly to humans.
Wetland Giant Wolf Spider
Wetland Giant Wolf Spider
The wetland Giant Wolf Spider lives and hunts alone, only meeting another spider in order to mate (sometimes the females eat the males after this!). The wetland giant wolf spider was so named for its defining traits — it prefers wetlands, is massive, and lives like a (lone) wolf. They look scary with their size and big yellow stripe, but they are not aggressive and their bite only causes minor discomfort.
Tigrosa Annexa Wolf Spider
Tigrosa Annexa Wolf Spider
The tigrosa Annexa Wolf Spider (Tigrosa annexa) is one of the few spiders that does not form a web. Instead, they roam around at night and try and locate their prey. The venom that they produce is for paralyzing their prey, making them utterly harmless to humans.
Woodland giant wolf spider
Woodland giant wolf spider
The woodland giant wolf spider builds its nest underground or underneath boards, stones, and even firewood piles. The spider is typically only active at night when it comes out to hunt for prey. While males only live for a couple of years, females typically survive for several years. During the summer, it’s not uncommon to find females carrying their young on their backs.
Tigrosa georgicola
Tigrosa georgicola
Tigrosa georgicola is a skillful hunter, often relying on its agility and sensitive hairs on its body to detect and swiftly capture prey. In a distinct adaptation among its kind, juveniles carry a unique pigmentation pattern that fades into a more uniform coloration as they mature into adults. Their diet is carnivorous, predominantly consisting of insects and other small invertebrates, reflecting a crucial role in controlling pests within their habitats.
Drumming sword wolf spider
Drumming sword wolf spider
Gladicosa gulosa is a type of wolf spider found in Beech-Maple forests of the US and Canada, where the spider can be found in the plant strata of ground, herb or shrub. It is not one of the more common wolf spiders.
Gladicosa pulchra
Gladicosa pulchra
With a remarkable adaptation for terrestrial life, gladicosa pulchra showcases a unique hunting technique that involves no web construction. Instead, it relies on its agility and keen sense of touch delivered through sensitive hairs to pursue prey directly on the ground. During their developmental stages, young individuals exhibit a notable variance in diet, often consuming smaller arthropods than their opportunistic adult counterparts, which include a wider array of insects.
