Default Brown Recluse Spider Info

After the stories recently about dogs being bitten by the Brown Recluse I decided to do some research.

The spiders can be a yellowish tan to a dark brown. They can be from 3/4" to 3" long.

The best way to kill these spiders is with a spider trap. Most insecticides won't kill them.

They don't spin webs. They hide out in dark places.

They stray from their hiding spot about an hour or 2 after dark.


Now that I have freaked myself out I thought I would share.
