So Im in my sons room giving my wife ****** (because I can) and I see this spider on the wall. Knowing how much she hates spiders I tell her to watch out your gonna die. Turns around and here is this good size bigger then a quarter size spider. At this point im laughing because I find it funny that no matter what size color or shape of any bug she pretty much freaks out. She throws me her shoe and tells me to go kill it. Me being the man in the house proudly steps up showing his man card to go kill the killer spider when I get close enough to it to see it has a fliddle on its back. HOLY SH!T she could of died
, my son could of died
since it was in my youngests room. I go to hit it with the shoe and it jumps off the wall onto my sons pillow and goes for me! I then took the shoe to it on my sons pillow knowing it wont get squished but can hold it there while my wife nerviously trys to get me tissues from the pack to finialize its fate.
I Moved the shoe it springs up to action poised and ready to jump on me and I go for the kill trying not to squish it to much so that I can still identify it as a brown recluse. I was able to kill it and remove its legs keeping the head part intact. Sure as sh!t there is the def outline of the fiddle on its back and got the magnifying glass out and see the 3 pairs of eyes on the front and for sure we have a real killer in my hands thankfully dead.
I call my wife and kids to the room I was in and show them how to identify if it is a brown recluse if they see another one. I tell my youngest if he sees any spider to run away and come get me. I tell my oldest if he sees one to get his shoe and smack the piss out of it. I show it to my wife and she goes I been killing them upstairs in my oldest beedroom and bathroom for days now and they keep coming back.
I suck up the pain (bad back and knees) and high tail it upstairs into my oldest bathroom and what do I see. 7 of these mother fvckers. 2 of which are double the size of the one I cought and killed. This time I have my wife go get the can of raid and do them all in chemicaly.
I was having a wasp problem early on this summer with them getting into the attic but have since not had any more at all. They all of a sudden just stoped coming into the attic and into the garage and I think I see why. And now the food is gone they are coming into the house. I bought some bombs to kill the wasps but now I got to go find them and see if they say spiders and do the house ASAP.
And just so you dont think I was making this stuff up here are some pictures of the ones in my son bathroom pryor to dying by spray.

NO well HERE is some step by step photos of what can happen after you get bitten. WARNING!!!! NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART! And I wouldnt be in the middle of eating anything while you look at it either. I know its not that big a deal to me but feel I should put the warning here for some of you who may puke when you click the link and ask why I didnt do it so I did
Think that because you dont have the BRS in your area your safe? Because your not listed on that map on page one feel your safe? THINK AGAIN! A linkage on the HOBO spider that is increasing in numbers in the northwest that produces the same wounds as the BRS. ENJOY!
Note: A Hobo spider (Tegenaria agrestis) can cause the same symptoms as the BRS. They are spreading in the NW states, apparently starting in Seattle around 1930. It is possible that some bites reported in this region, resulting in necrotic arachnidism, may stem from the Hobo, not the BRS.
