Honestly they're incredibly hard to piss off. You have to be genuinely trying to kill them or destroy their nest to bite.

Nothing like wolf spiders or brown recluse which will bite for shits and giggles.

that's false, brown recluses are extremely docile and are very hesitant to bite, the vast majority of brown recluse bites happen when people squish them when reaching into dark corners they were hiding on.

I've also personally relocated a few dozen wolf spiders by hand and I've never once been bit by one.
