Throughout all of mankind, we have survived by staying away or killing things that harm us. We have killed many different animals, just because they were a threat to basic human survival. Some of these creatures are known to have venom. Venom to most things, including humans, can do a lot of damage. Paralysis, blindness, and even vomiting. Many creatures carry venom throughout their bodies. If they are attacked, then the venom will seep into the predator, destroying them from the inside out. However, recently, scientist have discovered to use for humans positively. For example, some snake venoms can be used to treat blood clots, and types of blood pressures. Arthropods are just as important. Scorpion venom can be used for wonders in treating the human bodies. Some Scorpions carry venom with antibacterial features.

Arthropods like Spiders can help to treat things like cancer. It can also be used to treat epilepsy and Erectile Dysfunction.
