I read up on the Brown Recluse spider before moving to KY. My understanding is that it is not venom that is responsible for the really scary looking bites, but a form of flesh eating bacteria.

Sounds like this is it’s UK counterpart. And yeah, sometimes it’s just a minor bite, and sometimes it’s, well, just google brown recluse bite in images.

The recluse spider does the same thing.

Spider bites often spread a MRSA like infection. Might be a useful practice to immediately micro-cauterize a bite wound.

shouldn't make us fear spiders

Rather than admit that I'm afraid of spiders, I just say that we can not coexist and so I kill them whenever I see them....

A Tens Unit is a good investment.

The lowest setting usually works for brown recluse bites.
