[Marvel] Why are criminals not more scared of Spider-Man?

In all the Spidey adventures I’ve read, it seems the criminals never take him as serious as they should with a hero of his status, both early and later into his crime fighting career. They just call him “web head” or “insect” and try to crush him like the bug they think he is. Why are criminals not scared of him like they are of other heroes, like in other universes like Batman? Sure, he wears bright colors and jokes and quips during battle, and Batman using fear is apart of his whole shtick, but still, Spidey would be scary asf to encounter in real life. If I was an NY criminal and was thinking of robbing a bank, and there was a possibility that I would come face to face with the resident super human who can move fast as lightning, kill a full grown elephant with one super strong punch, and string up my broken body from the highest buildings in the city while simultaneously flinging out brutal insults, I’d think twice about it.

I think they talk down to him because (1) they're bad people and (2) they know there won't be consequences.  Spider-Man's going to stay jovial and just web them up regardless.  He isn't going to knock someone's teeth out for being looked at the wrong way, let alone insulted.  So, the bad guys take liberties with their choice of words and talk down to him.
