What is the difference between Mosquito and Spider Bites?

Mosquitos pick their prey through a well- developed, order oriented mechanism. Spiders may bite as their defense mechanism to human disturbance. Mosquito bites might alert the immune system of a human body to respond through the process of producing antibodies against antigens which come from the saliva of an insect. Spiders that have venom may cause severe nerve damage to the prey that they bite.

There are numerous available gel-based or spray products that when applied on the surface, will prevent mosquitos from biting you. Spider bites may be avoided if insect exterminators get involved. Both spider bites and mosquito bites cause swelling.

The mosquito bite is made by the mosquito. You may notice that there is a slight bump on your skin. The mosquito usually makes a hole and injects its saliva to get blood from you. With a spider bite, you are likely to see two holes instead of one.

The holes will also close but if the spider is venomous, it will inject the venom first into your bloodstream before the holes completely close. The mosquito may usually bite anyone convenient while the spider will only bite when it is provoked. Mosquitoes do not have venom but they may also cause other deadly diseases such as malaria and dengue.

With a mosquito bite, a hole is made by the mosquito. Saliva is injected and then they drink blood. With spider bites, two holes are made from the spider's fangs. The hole will vanish, but before it does, venom is injected. Mosquitos are itchy and can spread diseases such as dengue fever or malaria. Spider bites hurt more than they itch and they don't carry diseases.

The pain from a spider bite occurs at the time of the bite. Mosquitos will attatck anyone, but spiders normally attack when they are provoked. A mosquito bite can be treated with rubbing alcohol, it is best to go to the doctor if one believes they have a spider bite.
