Araneus cavaticus is a common garden spider mainly found in North America. Generally speaking, giant garden spiders are not venomous enough to cause serious harm to humans. They generally do not actively attack humans, and their venom usually does not pose a serious threat to humans.

However, although the venom of the spider spider is not very dangerous to humans, some people may have a mild allergic reaction to its bite because everyone may react differently to the spider's bite. Therefore, it is still recommended to avoid irritating or touching any spiders, including the spider spider, especially if you do not know whether the spider is venomous.

If you are bitten by a spider, stay calm, clean the wound, and seek medical attention as soon as possible. If possible, it is best to capture or photograph the attacker to help doctors identify and provide appropriate treatment.
