So what kind of spider has more toxic venom. The black widow or brown recluse?

I don't know which is worse, I only know that they are different. I believe that the Black Widow's venom is a neuro-toxin, while the Brown Recluse causes necrosis of the tissue. It will be interesting to find out more.

cheers,

I think the Brown Recluse is worse. I'm not sure though.
Black widows are much prettier though.
