Brown Recluse

Because Brown Recluses like to live in heated homes, bites occur year round. And in just hours, a bite from the highly venomous Brown Recluse spider can create blisters and cause tissue damage to both people and pets within hours after the initial bite. Necrosis (death of cells) sets in quickly and the result is a very painful and gruesome "flesh-rotting" wound. Bites from Brown Recluse spiders can cause amputations, severe pain and in rare cases even death, mostly seen in elderly and young people.
