Default Re: Black Widow Spider

Barb,

sometimes it is the small innocuous looking spiders that can do the most harm. My daughter was bitten by a tiny brown spider while driving her car. It turned out to be a brown recluse and the infection that developed was horrible. She had to have the bite lanced and poison drawn out but she has a huge scar from where the skin died around the bite.

Personally I despise all spiders and I cant distinguish the harmless ones from the dangerous ones so I try to avoid them all! YUKK!!!
