Have you been getting bitten by a lot of spiders lately? Are you concerned about Brown Recluse Spiders?

\nWell, I know people don’t like to hear this, but those spider bites you woke up with this morning were probably not spider bites. Spiders don’t really bite people.<\/p>\n
Or, more accurately, if I had a dime for every time I’ve heard someone claim they were bitten by a spider, and had to give back 20 dimes every time they actually were bit by a spider, I’d have a lot of dimes.<\/p>\n

Brown Recluse Spiders are real, and their bite can be bad, but they are rare and, well, reclusive, and they are restricted geographically to a much smaller area than the meme warning us of them is found. So, there is a good chance that you don’t have Brown Recluse Spiders in your area. Or maybe you do. Either way, click here to find out more about the Brown Recluse, where it is, and what it is.<\/a><\/p>\n
