Tarantula Diseases?

[Sonicookie]

I know of a few, but I'm curious, what tarantula diseases/illnesses are there? I know of nematodes and Dyskinetic Syndrome, I believe it's called.

Dyskinetic Syndrome isn't a disease, only a symptom possibly of several ailments..

Mostly people say it’s caused by harmful chemicals ie; pesticides, air freshener etc

That seems to be one of the main causes but I had a sling develop it within an hour of arriving, it was dead within 6 hours. It had been posted less than 24 hours earlier so I can only put it down to stress.

Yeah, that's why I specified /ilnesses. I've kinda always figured it was nerve damage-based, and that's why there's multiple causes.
