After many years of being a cat owner, cleaning wounds has become second-nature. My cats have caused more damage than either T bite I've received. Now the hair-kickers are a different story altogether!!!Hahaha, I love it!!
I have read on TKG it's possible to get infections from a tarantula bite but only because the skin was broken. If your careful about cleaning the bite wound you shouldn't have to worry. You're just as likely to get an illness from a cut, scrape or splinter as you would a bite.
On the upside of humanity, there are some intelligent people out there. My keyboardist came over last night, and had a really valid question for not knowing anything about this hobby. He asked me, "Even though you have all yours seperately housed, aren't there some species that can live together?"
I had to check my pulse before I answered that question, because I think that was the first time I've heard an actual intelligent, and genuinely interested question from a non-arachnophile.
