What if a spider ran up my arm?

If a spider ran up your arm, the first thing to do would be to remain calm and avoid making any sudden movements. If you can, try to gently blow the spider away or use a tissue to remove it. If the spider is too fast or you can't get it off your arm, you should try to slowly move your arm away from your body, keeping it as still as possible. If you can, try to find a container or cup to carefully trap the spider in and then release it outside.

It is important to remain calm and not panic, as this may cause the spider to become agitated and bite you. If you are bitten, you should immediately wash the area with soap and water and apply an ice pack to reduce swelling. If the bite is severe, red, or swollen, you should seek medical attention.
