Will a poisonous spider bite kill a poisonous spider? Are they impervious to poisoned spider bites because they are poisonous themselves?

Does being venomous protect you from the venom of others? Can you build up a tolerance to poison if you ingest it ever so slowly over time? Inquiring minds wanna know. Does the bite of the biter always affect the bitee adversely or are some bitees naturally protected from the slings and arrows of life as well as poison? How?

    1. All spiders are venomous so they can kill their prey.
    2. Some spiders eat other spiders; therefore they are not immune.
    3. There is no research of non-immunity amongst spiders.
