Default L parahybana bite

would it hurt?
mine is only a baby, its moulted twice and is around 5 inches leg span.
I know the reaction to the venom would depend on the persons tolerance,
mine ran out of its hide in an aggresive posture today while I was changing its water, it didnt come near me it was more like *stay away*.
So would there be much pain from the actual bite, not the after affects?

It's just like a bee sting. Spiderlings can still bite, but obviously not as badly as adults. Still hurt though i reckon! (i dont spk from experience. i keep my fingers well out of the way :P)
