Just killed the biggest, nastiest Brown Recluse Spider in my kitchen...

[Jase]

... not seconds after I had just unknowingly walked barefoot where it was.

They say you can't feel one bite you right when it happens.

My leg feels funny. Goodbye cruel world. :seeya:

[Jase]

my swag will be with me in heaven where it belongs.

[jasonluckydog]

u sure it was a br? i've heard they are small

Frequently homeowners bring in brown spiders

thought to be a brown recluse. Many spiders are

mistaken for brown recluse spiders. In North Carolina

it is HIGHLY UNLIKELY that you will find a recluse

spider. It is possible but incredibly unlikely since their

range extends only to the southwestern-most border of

NC.

Yeah, many people think this is a brown recluse:

It's not. It's a wolf spider. VERY common. And mostly harmless. In fact, they are beneficial in keeping infestations of other insects down.

Now this... is a brown recluse.

Notice the tiny fiddle mark behind the eyes.

I can honestly say, I've never seen one. Which is normal. They are recluse spiders because they are reclusive... they hide.

from now on, I won't click threads with spider in the title....the pics are creeping the poo out of me.

We had a ton of Wolf Spiders in our brick pile growing up. However something did bite me at work once and took a dime sized chunk outta my calf, not fun.

awesome spider story: once upon a time i was in australia staying in a cabin in the wilderness and it turned out it was infested with spiders. bigass hungryass spiders. i'd turn out the light and within thirty seconds i'd feel the first one scuttle across my chest, followed immediately by several more. i'm pretty sure the mattress was infested with them as well as the rest of the cabin.

after several times of turning the light off and lunging for the switch moments later i realized i either was gonna stay up all night or get bitten. i turned off the light and went to sleep. the next morning i was covered in welts. some spider with a sick sense of humor bit a smiley-face-shaped range of welts into my and. ugly asshole bug

anyway, hope you feel better OP, spiders are seriously such dicks.

Why didn't you just leave the light on, or leave?

...whatever...
