Recluse spiders aren't anything to sneeze at. One bit my supervisor several different places on her leg. The largest bite ended up being the size of a grapefruit--dead down to the bone. Turned black and smelled like dead mice. The meds made her skin peel from the tip of her head to her toes. She would stand and skin would be falling to the floor around her. Couldn't wear slacks for an entire year. After many surgeries to cut away what had died, she is left with a huge hole. My parents live in the south where recluse spiders are an every day thing. Professional spraying is done every year. Guess that is what I recommend. Spiders hide in every nook and cranny. Professionals also are able to use sprays that aren't dangerous. We have bug exterminators come through the school every so often spraying while the children are in the school. Just a thought.
