My Robust Curtain Web spider, Stranger! 💚 she’s a cutie, unfortunately I don’t hold her how I do occasionally with my other spider. Cethegus robustus reminds me too much of the Sydney funnel web(Atrax robustus) to feel comfortable touching her with my hands. Although they are(Cethegus robustus) not considered deadly to humans how A. robustus are, the C. robustus venom hasn’t been studied to that extent
