Not sure if there's a better place to ask this?

When you are facing a monster that has a natural poison attack (eg: monstrous spider), when you are hit multiple times does the poison effect stack?  As an example, a tiny monstrous spider bites you and you fail the fort save, taking 1d2 strength damage.  When that spider bites you again, do you make another fort save and if you fail that do you take another 1d2 strength damage?  If yes, does the same apply to the secondary damage from each bite?

From the rules at d20srd.org I think they do stack, but it doesn't have any specific details either way. 

Thanks!
