    Brown Recluse spiders - help please?

    A couple of weeks ago I was bitten by one of these things and it's probably the most painful thing I've ever gone thru - it HURTS!!

    But I seem to be killing at least one a day in my house - does anyone here know how to get rid of these things? I've never had a single one in my house and now am seeing them more often - so I don't know if I have a nest of them or they are just worse this time of the year or what - I just know they are some mean little bastards!

      There was a man here on GFY several years back that was bitten by one and did not get treated. The venom took his whole calf and unfortunately he suffered a heart attack and passed away as a side effect. I hope you got that bite checked out.

            Call an exterminator, pay the $200 bucks so you and your family members don't have to worry about having their limbs rotting off if bit.

            Post a pic of the bite mark.

              Mine, thankfully - wasn't as bad as some I've seen and we got on it right away - and it's almost healed - and I am going to the Dr on Tuesday to make sure it's doing as it should in the healing thing... but seems to be healing better than I thought it was going to.

              I am so allergic to every stupid chemical I come in contact with, I thought maybe someone would have some advice on how to battle them outside of a bunch of chemical products that would otherwise be used.

                This is 10 days in, I caught it right away - we first thought it was a boil - ingrown hair or something - but it wasn't looking right - and wasn't hurting the same way, this was hurting in my whole leg.

                I've just about gotten the wound part down to manageable now, but it got pretty ugly for a few days there.



                - it is about 10 days or so in here - and I see my Doctor on Tuesday about it - long boring story there but that's the fastest I could get in.

                  Look at those cute little fang marks!

                  My friend from High School ended up going into the Marines halfway through his senior year. To make a long story short, someone in his squad at basic training got bit by a brown recluse and ended up losing his leg.

                  They are no joke.

                    No, I know - my husband was bitten by one 20 or so years ago - and it took a good while for his to heal, that much I remember.

                    This one - we did some hunting on google and found a few home remedies I have been doing until I can get to my Dr - eating Echincea and packing it with this grap clay shit has REALLY made improvements on healing - it's just about closed completely up and is just itching like mad right now.

                    I changed Drs and before the new one will even see me, they want my records from the old Dr and when I called them, they got really nasty about it and informed me that they can take up to 30 days if they so choose and basically if I wanted to push it, they would do just that. They are very nasty about patients leaving their care - SOOOOO - I had to go to the new Dr and have THEM reach out and get my records and they have made better progress than I have and they finally got them and I have an Appointment on Tuesday...

                    I guess people seeing 10 different Doctors at one time to get all their various drugs are who we can thank for that shit.

                          That's pretty standard for new doctors unfortunately, but did you mention to them you were bitten by a spider? They usually take that pretty seriously. Personally I would go to an urgent care or ER to get it checked out. Even though you say it's getting better, it still looks terrible and there is no way I would wait another four days to get that checked out. Far too much damage can be done in four days.

                            No I didn't mention it to them - it's not AS painful today and I can at least walk straight and not like I am 100 years old. lol

                            It's doing a great deal better and when I go in I'm going to have them take a look at it - but it seems to be healing well for right now - once I stopped treating it like a boil and like a bite, that is. lol

                            The most painful part is the location - it's in the inner most part of my thigh so walking was kind of wonky at best.
