How do I know if I've been bitten by a venomous, or harmless spider?!

Question: How do I know if I've been bitten by a venomous, or harmless spider?

I felt a small thing(probably a spider) bite me on the neck. How do I know which symptoms point at it being a venomous spider, or a harmless one? And do symptoms of venomous spiders, come up immediatley, or after a few minutes?(or hours).

Answers:

Depends which one, most spiders are harmless and even if you get bit its fine,
although id recommend looking at the symptoms online just in case :D
Dont stress out too much over it though until you know the symptoms
as that can lead to false conclusions and your mind can play tricks on you.

ps, if you get any symptom like redness, swelling or itching thats getting worse after24 houres you
should consult a doctor :)

well your chances are pretty good its not venomous. Unless your in some remote land then I probably wouldn't worry to much about it.

Yeah it really swells. You can feel it.
