Friday evening I had stripped down and was sitting on the pot before getting into the shower. I felt a tickle on the top of my left foot and looked down to see this guy crawling across the top of my foot. I brushed it off and snapped a couple pics for ID in case I was bitten. I didn’t feel anything and No symptoms yet so I don’t think it bit me. Definitely got my attention when I first looked down. I like spiders and snakes so it really didn’t bother me and I didn’t freak out or anything but it definitely freaked my wife out....she went on a rampage around the bathroom with bengal bug spray...Lord only knows where all else she sprayed. Interesting info.....had no idea there were more than 3,500 known species of spider in the United States alone but only a couple to really worry about....

I was cleaning up in the shop again last night and picked up this roll of wire. This dead one makes number six. I guess my spray cocktail a few weeks ago worked.

I got nailed by a Brown R once - my boss sent me to the doctor when I came into work a couple hours later. He was like - you got hit by something bad - that does not look good! Go NOW! I got some meds, immediately, but It turned into about a tennis ball size growth around my elbow and the stuff that came out was not for the weak of heart.

I helped a friend move some boxes out of his attic many years ago. Never saw a spider, but a couple of hours later I had a spot on my left forearm that was tender, swollen, and red. By the next morning I had a tennis ball sized lump growing. Went to ER and they said probably brown recluse. Lanced and removed all the dead skin. It drained a ton of really nasty stuff for several days. Hard core antibiotics and I healed, but still have a scar there. I do not like spiders.
