Bite Humans
Rectangle
Toxic to Animals

Golden-brown jumping spider can cause discomfort if its mild venom is transmitted through a bite in its adult stage. While it primarily affects smaller organisms, if a human, rodent, or bird is bitten, they may experience localized pain or irritation. However, the venom is not potent enough to cause serious harm in larger animals. Each animal reacts differently, with smaller prey being more susceptible to the effects of the toxin.

Rectangle
Bite Humans

Golden-brown jumping spider is not characterized by a behavior of biting humans. Instances of bites from golden-brown jumping spider towards humans are exceedingly rare, as they typically do not see humans as prey or a threat. When such incidents occur, they are primarily defensive, resulting in mild consequences without severe effects.
