they can inject venom into your skin. it is not really evident until you get bit by a larger specimen and the tiny bites are "activated". i have had 2i S. polymorpha bite me with no seeming affect... adn then a couple days later i got tagged by larger polymorpha and the tiny bites swelled up and started to itch... it was pretty crazy, actually.Heres a pic of one of the young ones. I've already gotten pinched but they are too small to do anything.
