For these little buggers. They are brown recluse spiders. Used to be confined to Southern parts of the country. Now moving North and doing well. They, as their name implies like attics, wood piles, and similair dark places. Truly a dastardly little creature.

I had a friend that ended up loosing his leg and darn near dying over a bite from one ot these.

I am going to post a pic of the spider and what the bite looks like to start with and then a end result pic.

Stay safe, wear gloves when doing spring yard work or cleaning the attic.

If you have a weak stomach don't look at the last pic.

I apologize if this offends anyone but it is a very real threat. BE SAFE!!!

Picture at the bottom is the critter.
