Hobo spider. Property of: Tobias Mercer

Venom

This is the chemical makeup of a piece of the venom of Tegenaria agrestis.  As you can see from the picture, it is made up of several different components.  There are some alcohols, an amide, some amines, and a sulfate group.  I discovered this formula from an academic journal that I found online.  There are many other components to the hobo spider venom, so click here if you would like to see them.
