Brown Recluse Spider Bite
Brown recluse spiders are small and aren’t very aggressive – but they still pack a punch. The bite may not be painful, and the venom takes a while to take effect, so you may not notice the bite at all. Soon it will itch and develop a red ring around the bite area. From here it will blister and possibly cause tissue necrosis. Antibiotics and possibly even surgery are used to treat brown recluse bites. Brown recluses are more common in the southern part of the US- especially from Texas to Georgia. Here is a picture of a brown recluse spider and a brown recluse spider bite:
Additional symptoms include:
- Kidney Failure
- Seizure
- Coma
Hobo Spider Bite
Hobo spiders are localized to the Pacific Northwest. Unlike many other spiders on the list, they can attack unprovoked. The bite can be painless, but the venom starts reacting within 15 minutes causing pain and numbness. Here is a picture of a hobo spider and a hobo spider bite:

- Headache
- Weakness
- Joint Pain
