Brown recluse is poisonous enough to kill your cat or dog and give you a bite that may become gangrenous. I cannot imagine why anyone would laugh about that.

One bit my grandmother on the neck and it left what looked like a mini volcano for months. She died of cancer within a year after that. I've always believed it was the spider bit that caused the cancer that killed her.

I saw that! Or at least I think it’s the same one you’re referring to. The one where the spider ate through the persons brain and came out the other ear? Turned out it was a female that laid eggs? eeeek!!!
To: BenLurkin
I got nailed on the left forearm by one of these. It rotted a hole about the size of a pea. Didn’t know what it was until someone saw it and told me. I’d been peeling shingles, evidently a favorite place for them to hide.

Happened to me. I woke up and couldn’t hear out of one ear. Stuck a Q-tip in, and a brown recluse skittered out on the Q-tip. I thought I’d never sleep again. This happened while I was living in Missouri. What are the chances? It didn’t bite me, praise the Lord.

You are probably right because they are noting but bad news.

A medical assistant examined Torres' ear, then ran out of the room to grab more sets of eyes. Soon, two nurses, three medical students and a doctor joined the assistant in the tiny exam room to break the news--a spider had set up shop in her ear canal.Great. Why didn't they just sell tickets? Meanwhile the previous attempts to get the spider out could have agitated it. It could have bitten her inner ear. Probably killed her.

We lived in rural MO for a few years. You always had to look carefully inside your rural mail box or when checking the in-ground water meter. They loved to set-up shop in those protected areas.

“but did they get the eggs”
Of course not.
Today’s ER wants her to return and pay their fee for every spider birth from all the eggs. Probably a maternity wing surcharge too.
