Wolf spiders are a widespread species of spider that live in solitude and do not spin webs. Historically, some researchers believed that wolf spider bites were necrotic, similar to those of a brown recluse. However, careful study has not supported this.

Instead, experts warn that wolf spider venom can cause minor issues, such as swelling, mild pain, and itching.
