Brown Recluse Spiders

Are brown recluse spiders dangerous?

Brown recluse spiders are timid and prefer to flee from a fight rather than engage, however, if they are compelled to bite, they will do so in order to protect themselves. One of the most frequent ways to get brown recluse spider bites is while organizing storage areas or reaching into a storage container.

Spiders that fall into this category are considered dangerous, not because they pose a threat but because their venom is potent enough to cause health issues in humans.

Wounds caused by a brown recluse spider bite take longer to heal and are more prone to infection. If a brown recluse spider bites you, it's critical to visit a doctor as soon as possible to manage the symptoms.

Why do I have a brown recluse spider problem?

Brown recluse spiders construct unevenly shaped webs on the ground, favoring locations that are dry, dark, and peaceful. They will thrive in an environment where they have a suitable location to build their webs and a sufficient quantity of bug prey.

Brown recluse spiders prefer to live in dark, humid places such as leaf piles, woodpiles, clutter in sheds, decks, gardens, and shrubberies. Unfortunately, their favorite hiding places are often found in common objects that may be found in most yards.

Where will I find brown recluse spiders?

They prefer to build their webs in locations that are not frequented by people. Brown recluse spiders may also be found in cardboard boxes, folded clothing, linens, cabinets, and beneath furnishings inside or outside of homes or outbuildings.
