How should I eliminate the threat of being bitten myself? Should I call an exterminator?

You'd better be careful!
Have you seen pictures of bite victims?
Very, very bad little creatures.

Just bugbomb the house. My wife was bitten by one in NC as was a friend. It's really ugly.

I've heard that they can be found as north as Maryland.

Call a bug man immediately. Leave the place for a day after he's been there. Mention the brown reculse bite and make sure his spray will kill spiders. Have him come back and spray again in three months. These bugs are nothing to fool with and they can be found as far north as Minnesota.

While the Black Widow is the most well known poisonious spider, the Brown Recluse is actually far more dangerous.

I've heard that we have them here in Northern Virginia.
How did it "become obvious" that something was wrong? I haven't heard of the effects of a bite.

Very bad, squared.

Are the bites always really really bad, or do some people just react to it worse than others? I've seen some people (on TV, not personally) whose entire lives were destroyed by the little buggers.

If you kill a spider you make it rain.

I was bitten by one - in VA - in 1982 so they have lived here for quite a long time. Also, my nephew - who lives in Poolesville, MD - was bitten 3 yrs ago while sleeping over at a friends house. They like to creep up on you in the night. (Sorry, just could not resist that.) I thought I was going to lose my leg.

My husband was bitten 5 times by a brown recluse. By the time he went to the Dr, days later, the Dr. said he was lucky to be alive.
