Amazon 7 #1 April 4, 2006 While I was rebuilding my computer room ( tore out all the old paneling and sheetrocked the whole room with the help of a realllllly sweet and cool friend) we found a whole bunch of spiders behind the paneling. There were several species... and since I happen to like the spider( well the wolf spiders and jumping spiders.. I catch them and put them outside in my garden to eat pests) Well two of them happened to be brown recluses.... I put two of them in a mason jar and now.. a few weeks later.. only one spider.. and BOY does she look pregnant... the other one.. well he was smaller and is now a little husk down at the bottom of her web.

"Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites TALONSKY 0 #10 April 4, 2006 Their bites can be extremely nasty, My neighbor got bitten by one and had a large portion of the skin on her calf affected by it. She had to take a month off of work. Here is some info on their bite. Brown recluse spider bites often go unnoticed initially because they are usually painless bites. Occasionally, some minor burning that feels like a bee is noticed at the time of the bite. Symptoms usually develop 2-8 hours after a bite. Keep in mind that most bites cause little tissue destruction. Victims may experience these symptoms: Severe pain at bite site after about 4 hours Severe itching Nausea Vomiting Fever Myalgias (muscle pain) Initially the bite site is mildly red and upon close inspection may reveal fang marks. Within a few hours, the redness gives way to pallor with a red ring surrounding the area, or a "bull's-eye" appearance. The lesion will often appear to flow downhill over the course of many hours. The center area will then often blister, which over 12-48 hours can sink, turning bluish then black as this area of tissue dies. The wound can appear like the following: Bull's-eye appearance (common) (Note: If you live in an area where Lyme disease is common (Northeastern states), then this type of lesion is more likely caused by tick-borne Lyme disease than a brown recluse spider bite.) Blistering (common) Necrosis (death) of skin and subcutaneous fat (less common) Severe destructive necrotic lesions with deep wide borders (rare) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites swedishcelt 0 #11 April 4, 2006 QuoteSmooch.

It created a horrible cyst which developed into a horrible infection. I was treated with antibiotics for a week and had to have the bite site cute out. It left a melon ball sized divot in the skin behind my knee that looks like a bruise that never goes away. I would be very careful with those little creatures.
