The camel spider is a large species of spider, that can grow up to a foot in length (including their legs). This frightening looking spider generally inhabits warm and arid habitats, including virtually all warm deserts and scrub-lands on all continents; with the exception of Antarctica and Australia. Camel spiders have also been known to inhabit grasslands or forests.
Although their appearance may say something to the contrary, the greatest threat these spiders pose to people, is a defensive bite which it may inflict; if handled improperly. Thankfully, the wound that results is not life-threatening and there is little or no chance of death, directly caused by a camel spider bite.
Other than their shocking appearance and defensive bite, camel spiders do not have venom, they do not spin webs and generally do not require advanced pest control strategies; to eliminate.
