1 FIRST AID IN ARACHNIDS A SUMMARY v1.1 MORE ON All rights reserved
2 ACCIDENTS MOLTING ISSUES Keep track of the spider's behavior. Predict an upcoming molt. Never remove the spider from her original spot during ecdysis, unless her life is in danger. Don't put her in ICU during ecdysis. Never spray water directly on the spider, esp. not during ecdysis. OLD EXOSKELETON GOT STUCK ON NEW SKIN Wait until the spider got on its feed to help. Remove parts of old carapace with tweezers. Difficult parts: Perform anaesthesia. DEFORMED LEGS Perform autotomy 2 weeks post-ecdysis. DISEASES OF THE CUTICULA LOSS OF FANGS Step 1: Perform anaesthesia. Step 2: Cut the fangs from old exoskeleton. Step 3: Glue old fang in place. Do nothing if the spider eats and lives well. WET MOLT Death is not inevitable. All rights reserved
3 OPEN WOUNDS Mainly caused by use of bad terraria, sharp objects, collapsing structures and impulsive fear responses. Use quality terraria. Use flour, superglue or bee's wax. Avoid jagged objects (with sharp ends). Cigarette paper is a good last choice. Reduce heights for terrestrials & burrowers. Respect the spider's lifestyle. Don't handle your spiders. DEHYDRATION Often caused by irresponsible keeping. In lesser extent due to anatomical dysfunction. Intermediate dehydration often shows a wrinkled abdomen and growing inactivity. Severe dehydration often results in a death curl. Learn to understand a spider's behavior. Opt. 1 - Put spider's mouth parts in a water bowl. Shallow water bowl. Book lungs need to be free. Opt. 2 - Step 1: ICU for 1 or more days (25-29 C). Opt. 2 - Step 2: Don't disturb the spider. Refresh ICU if dry and/or dirty. * ICU: Intensive Care Unit. AUTOTOMY Autotomy is no amputation. Firmly grab the femur of the targeted leg with tweezers. The spider will release her leg. Leg muscles will close the wound. The leg will regenerate with the first molt, but will need a few molts to reach ideal condition. ANAESTHESIA Make sure the spider makes no contact with the bubbling baking soda. Step 1: Pour baking soda at the bottom of the transparant tube (smaller spp. 1, bigger spp. 2 flat teaspoons). Step 2: Block the tube with a sponge in the middle. Step 3: Place the spider on top of the sponge. Step 4: Firmly close the airtight and screwable lid. Step 5: Prick through the lid/sponge and add around 10 waterdrops to the baking soda. Step 6: Close the hole of the syringe in the lid with strong tape. Step 7: Wait minutes. Bigger specimens need more time. All rights reserved
4 DISEASES & OTHER HEALTH ISSUES DEFECATION PROBLEMS Mainly Asian arboreals (including Poecilotheria species) were reported victim. Avoid obesity. Alternate your prey. DYSKINETIC SYNDROME A syndrome is not a disease. The exact cause of the symptoms remains to be investigated. Symptoms vary: Trembling, shaking, uncontrolled spastic movements, weird overall behavior. Avoid chemicals near the terraria. Perform first option of cure dehydration. Clean with natural products. Avoid mycotoxines and smoke. Provide a clean environment. Possible treatments on our website. Not confirmed by science. Respect the spider's lifestyle. EGG BINDING The issue of the eggs not passing the ovulatory system at a normal rate. Common in reptiles and birds. Probably caused by poor condition of the mother, sudden disturbances during oviposition, lack of a good hide, anatomical defects, malformed eggs. Birds with egg binding are given higher temperatures and humidity. Decent hide. Alternate prey. Respect the spider's lifestyle. Don't disturb the spider, esp. when mated. Raise temperature and humidity. Not confirmed by science. All rights reserved
5 INFECTIOUS DISEASES & PARASITES FUNGAL INFECTION & PARASITIC FUNGUS Entomopatogenic fungi, such as Ophiocordycipitaceae fungi, exploit and parasitize insects and arachnids. Symptoms: Short period of anorexia. Saprophytic fungi grow on the spider's cuticula. Symptoms are visible. Treat before it got through the cuticula. ENTOMOPATOGENIC FUNGUS Don't swap lids from your terraria. SAPROPHYTIC FUNGUS Avoid puddles. Good ventilation. Remove leftovers. Keep water fresh. Don't swap lids from your terraria. Treat fungus daily with povidone-iodine. Iso-betadine. Incubate fertilized eggs. Not always. Read our caresheets. Remove fungus-infected eggs. * Cuticula: The hardened surface layer of the exoskeleton in arthropods. MITES Mites create hotbeds in warm and humid area. Spiders in mite-infested terraria may show weakness. Check for parasitic mites on the legs. Check for saprophytic and phoretic mites around the book lungs and the mouth parts. PARASITIC MITES Parasitic mites will leave eventually. Use predatory mites. Don't add cleaning crew in the next 3 months. Trap mites. Remove leftovers and carcasses. More info on the website. SAPROPHYTIC & PHORETIC MITES Remove leftovers and carcasses. Use predatory mites. Don't add cleaning crew in the next 3 months. Possible treatments on our website. Not as effective as predatory mites. Trap mites. More info on the website. All rights reserved
6 BACTERIAL INFECTION Scientific research has proven Bacillus species are effective pathogens in spiders. Decent hide. Alternate prey. FLIES Phorid flies are similar to fruit flies, except for their black eyes. Fruit flies are harmless. Infection of Acrocerid flies' larvae mainly occurs in wild-caught specimens. PHORID FLIES Remove infested area. Clean terraria. Rehouse the spider if necessary. Remove leftovers and carcasses. Keep the terraria clean. Make ventilation holes Phorid-proof. ACROCERID FLIES Prevent them from entering your terraria. Acrocerid flies are quite big. Destroy the pupa before the fly emerges. FLIES' LARVAE (MAGGOTS) Clean your terraria frequently. Provide healthy conditions for your prey. Remove infested area. Rehouse the spider if necessary. Keep the terraria clean. All rights reserved
7 NEMATODES & NEMATOMORPHAE Infected species will initially show symptoms of anorexia and lethargy. Panagrolaimid nematodes restrict themselves to up and around the moouth parts. Symptoms Panagrolaimidae: Early - Milky white spots chelicerae. Later - Severe thick infestation. Diagnose Panagrolaimidae: Magnifying glass or anaesthesia > flush mouth parts > add saline > microscope. Mermithid nematodes and nematomorphae are mainly found in wild-caught specimens. Symptoms Mermithidae: Enlarged and/or deformed opisthosoma/pedipalps, short legs, always near water. PANAGROLAIMID NEMATODES Possible treatments on our website. Clean terraria. Not confirmed by science. Remove leftovers and carcasses. Make ventilation holes Phorid-proof. Secure your own health at all time. Don't replace surviving prey to other cages. Don't buy extremely low priced adult species. MERMITHID NEMATODES Unknown at hobby level. Don't feed wild-caught prey. Don't buy extremely low priced adult species. NEMATOMORPHAE Don't feed wild-caught prey. Don't buy extremely low priced adult species. Unknown at hobby level. Treatment on our website. All rights reserved
