I think if I had a choice, I’d prefer a BW to a brown recluse.
Me too.
Those recluse have flesh rotting venom. I have made it a normal habit to shake a shirt or tap my shoes together before I put them on. We have recluse in these parts too. They hide in you clothes closet and under your sheets.
I guess it could be worse. I could be in Australia with the funnel webs.
