Brown Recluse spider 4 Attachment(s) This is a little graphic but is a must see, so that you will know what is happening should you get bit knowing or unknowingly. This talks about your attic, they can be found in any dark cool place, just be careful where you put your hands, seek medical attention ASAP. Brown Recluse Spiders - This is a MUST read Whether it's spring time, summer time, fall time or cleanup is going on. Be careful where you put your hands. They like dark spaces & woodpiles. Also cool areas in the attic, etc. This guy was bitten by a Brown Recluse spider. The Brown Recluse Spider is the most dangerous spider that we have here in the USA. |
Not fun at all. I was bitten by one..on my..well rather not divulge...yeah have no clue how or where the spider came from but I had to have a lot of skin and tissue removed had 10 to 12 stitches, and might one day have to get some more of the tissue removed. My mistake was I thought it was a bug bite or an ingrown hair and didn't see drs for about a month. Mom says well at least if you get lost we have a mark to tell the police and news meida about....haha Michelle |
That's just lovely! Yuck! I knew their bite was very dangerous...even fatal, but I didn't know it could do that! Do you know how long it progressed before it got to that stage? |
Thanks for the info, But I have to tell you the pictures made me sick! :eek: |
Well, I just researched this spider, and it is found in areas south and west to Kentucky...and California. From what I just read this takes place over s 2 to 3 day peroid, because of the dark serum left by the initial bite. It also said that the bite is like a mosquito bite. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...&ct=image&cd=2 |
Omg that is the most disgusting thing that I have ever seen! Thanks for the warning I hate spiders! |

More info... |
GOD!!!! Spiders TOOOOOTALLY gross me out!!! I am scared to death of them. My theory is...if it has more than 4 legs (6 max), it is evil and must be destroyed! There is just something VERY unnatural about a creature with 8 legs and all of those eye balls! :eek: |
When I went to Kentucky 2 years ago, I was attcked by a green looking spider in the shower...I haven't visited Kentucky since, and have NO plans on going back any time soon!! I HATE BUGS!! All Kinds!! |

Oh...if you could only see the mental picture I'm getting in my head of you running like a lunatic with a shower curtain wrapped around you! |
Please, please, please be careful when dealing with any spider if you are in doubt about whether or not it is poisonous. My best friend died about 4 years ago from complications deriving from a Fiddleback (brown recluse) spider bite. If you are bit, please seek medical attention immediately, especially if you don't know what bit you. These can be very dangerous! |
My uncle got bitten a couple of years ago and lost a big chunk of skin off his back, even after its been healed now,you can still fit your fist in the place it left. That happened in Lakeland Fla. Also one of my co-workers sons just got bit by one a month ago here in Indiana. He has a really bad scar on his shoulder now. I never used to be afraid of spiders until I heard of this kind. Now I am!! But, I will say I am petrified of snakes!!!!!!!!! |
