General description and domicile:
The European tarantula or Wolf Spider is often confused with the Cuban or
American Tarantula which has a venomous bite and can cause quite a bit of damage
and discomfort. The toxicity of the European Tarantula is much lower.
The European tarantula (after which all the other similar looking spiders were
named) got its common name from a small Italian town called Tarento. It was
proved in Spain in 1984 which is possibly responsible for the Zoological name of
Tarantula Hispanica
Warning: A bite from
the European tarantula, although less harmful than its American counterpart, is
still painful and may cause an allergic reaction.
Part used and extraction:
The whole spider is used.
Remedy preparation:
The whole spider is macerated and dissolved in alcohol over a
prolonged period before being filtered to obtain the mother tincture.
History:
The tarantula does not spin a web. Instead it hunts its prey by chasing it
down and grasping it in its powerful front legs before biting and injecting its
venom. It relies on its strength more than the toxicity of its venom to overcome
its prey.
Most of the Tarantula's reputation dates back to when it was
believed that its bite will cause tarantism a "catch-all" disease that was
blamed for a variety of depressions and madness.
