Chris,

I have heard that P. olfersii has a pretty bad bite but not much about the other species. Withing the past couple of years somebody posted a picture of themselves free handling a large P. olfersii. I think a handful of people jumped in and warned him about that.

The P. baroni keepers I know treat them like they are not a concern.

Personally, I would treat them all the same - like they are hot.
