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!

Magnetron from your microwave oven + tin will do the trick ;)

P.S. The guy from that video claims it easily kills insects and spiders through any wall just easily

BTW, the explosions that you can hear here are are not sound effects. They are real, because this video was filmed in Lugansk (the Ukraine) right in the war zone. Looks like these guys just don't give a single fuck about all those exploding shells around

Necrosis is the issue with brown recluse and some other venomous spiders. Not something
to fool with.

At them minimum bug bomb the house. Exterminator would reduce the numbers and would be worth at least 1 visit with 1 followup.

Reduce any moisture / water source under and around the house, and then spray there as well.

Yikes!!!

Well, I guess in some areas of the world, that sound is about as second nature as the tv is in our homes! Pretty scary and sad thought actually!

Yeah I seen that - I highly doubt my issue is quite that bad - and it's been posted a few times in this thread - I just have one bite and seen a handful in 12 years - I just wanted to know if anyone here had had any experiences with them and how to contain the situation - simply because anything I've seen about pros trying to deal with them doesn't ever seem successful.

I just killed giant spider on wall with a body size of bee and it possible how it is same type,as it is brown color.
Had to get up on table to kill it,and as result i screwed a bit my shoulder,due sudden move.(i used IT magazine to kill it). And now there is goo left on wall,look like someone cummed on it lol.And what i find annoying on internet,there is people who always say how we shouldn't kill spiders,how they are "bros" which kills other annoying bugs.Which is bullshit as there is billions of other bugs always and there is no way how they could kill them all,so i dont see point in keeping them.And especially i dont see point in keeping them in room where you sleep. Checked my room further and found one more spider sitting right on el. socket,but that one was atleast small one.

I was once one of those people that didn't think they needed to be killed if they were on the ceiling not hurting anyone, but after this - the only GOOD spider is a dead one or one outside where it can't get to me. lol

Same with snakes - I am even more terrified of them. lol

Don't kill spiders they are the best insects just catch them in jar and move them outside.
I am always seeing big huntsman spiders they are smart creatures moving into shadows and are self aware had to catch sure but they will do your garden some good keeping ticks and other insects away. I get lots after days of rain but i never kill them i just move them.

As I said, they can be outside all they want and I don't and won't bother them - I don't keep my gardens in the house and I have animals outside that need them and their protection - but in my house - this won't be happening - not again!!

Yep. I had recent flurry of scorpion activity here at my place.

So I sprayed some pro strength home insecticide. But it doesn't hurt scorpions (even the sprays that claim they are for scorpions).

So I called some professional exterminators. The way they do it is a "bug hunt". They actually come to your house at night with black light (scorpions glow under black light) and kill them by hand!

Anyway, I started googling on how to get rid of scorpions. And the method that was described as the absolute best was: To get a cat!

I seem to remember seeing something about using empty coffee-cans as DIY scorpion traps. You bury the cans up to the rim, and the scorpions will fall in and not be able to climb out. Periodically check the traps and kill or relocate as you see fit.

My problem is that my girl cat will bring me her catches still alive if I am home. She'll whine at the door and when I open it she steps inside and drops whatever she is holding. Summer before last I had three live lizards running around the house at one point, which kept the other two cats thoroughly entertained.

Robbie · 10-12-2014, 12:19 PM

Actually what I did was get those sticky traps. They are basically pieces of cardboard covered with a glue substance that will actually stop a mouse in it's tracks!

I put 3 or 4 of those around the office and sure enough...the things are covered with bugs and a few scorpions.

My cat died earlier this year (he was 20 years old and eaten up with cancer)...and I just didn't want to get another cat and live with cat hair all over the place for another 20 years.
So the sticky traps seem to do the trick.

Not sure if they would work for most spiders since they seem to live in webs (except the big "hunter" type spiders)

BlueWave · 10-12-2014, 01:30 PM

A friend was bitten by a Brown Recluse several years ago and the doctor's biggest concern was necrosis setting in.

The one thing that has stuck with me from the research we did at the time - aside from the whole pain and necrosis concern - was that the Brown Recluse doesn't "groom" itself the way most spiders do. As such your normal spider sprays/powders/etc will rarely get them because they won't get the chemical in their mouth. The only thing that's pretty much guaranteed to get them is fumigating the whole house and garage if it's not part of the house. (Disclaimer - I can't swear the above info is factual but it's the way I remember it.)

Hope you heal up without any permanent scars - Good luck!

That doesn't work when you have invasion,you just need to kill them.Especially those giant spiders which could jump on your head and poke your eye lol.Once i had an invasion of mini "dot size"spiders,there was literally thousand of them,how did they got to my room is beyond me,i spent 2 hours by vacuuming them.

Diomed · 10-12-2014, 05:03 PM

-Mupirocin ointment.
-Pack the wound in sugar
-use sheets of "bounce" around the house and under your bed to keep the fuckers at bay

Brad Mitchell · 10-12-2014, 08:26 PM

What does the bounce sheet do? Other than make my house smell good, of course. lol

I am not so sure packing sugar in it would have been such a brilliant idea as I am a Diabetic - but thank you.

It's all but closed up now - and my Dr's appt is tomorrow - but all that's left now is the itching like crazy where the skin is healing and tightening back up. It has a ways to go, sure - but the Clay packs and Echinacea have REALLY done some miracle healing on it.

I do appreciate the help here - some of the things have helped a great deal and it's much appreciated.

Go to the doctor immediately, they carry a disease called necrotizing fasciitis, it is a skin rotting condition and if untreated will spread all the way to your heart and kill you. I am very serious about this, don't pass go, and consult your doctor immediately.

I hope you are okay

Went to the Dr today - all is well and healing fine and so on - as I thought it would be... all because we got on it very very fast!

They put me on some really nasty anti-inflammatory meds that NO ONE should ever be put on - and I'll not be taking those things, not after seeing the side effects! Fucking Drs - they all suck!
