The '''Venom Dweevil''' ({{j|ミドリショイグモ|Midori Shoi Gumo|Green Carrying Spider}}) is an [[enemy]] in {{p4}}. Like other members of the [[Dweevil family]], it will carry nearby [[treasure]] and enemy corpses. When attacked, it emits a cloud of [[poison]] gas, making the poison-immune [[White Pikmin]] and [[Glow Pikmin]] a safe option for a battle against it.

The Venom Dweevil greatly resembles the [[Munge Dweevil]] in both appearance and behavior, except that it is turquoise instead of purple.

Venom Dweevils will pick up any stray objects they can lift, making it necessary to defeat them in order to obtain certain treasures. The toxic cloud they create is deadly to most types of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], requiring the player to whistle back any non-White Pikmin caught in the poisonous gas. However, they are not particularly tenacious and only emit venom if the player throws Pikmin at them.
