"Confirmed by DR" #1 lie. Tons of these bite are reported here in Fl. The brown recluse isn't native to Fl. the brown house spider Male looks identical, but has six eyes so it isn't a recluse. Worked for a few years at UF entomology (bugs) and we put quite a few of these "brown recluse" spiders under the micro scope. Non were confirmed as a brown recluse. This lady knows her stuff and shows it well.

Though not confirmed as the work of a Brown Recluse. I believe I was bitten by one, on my foot. I concluded it happened overnight, while sleeping indoors in the Southern US. Foot was swollen up greatly and hurt to the bone. And some tiny bite marks appeared, and thereafter dead skin and discharge. Deeply painful.

I was bit by one (confirmed bite) in my upper arm buy my shoulder and i was bit out by my grandparents house its a very dry place like a desert. My arm was green and brown and purple, I was having to take steroids and i had to get an anti-venom shot ( not sure exactly what it's called) and i had to take antibotics. It's never hurt it just itched really bad. It sucked

I was bit by a brown recluse (confirmed by a doctor) in balmy Louisiana. Good info for more than just the desert.

My friend had a confirmed bite up here in NY. They guess that the spider got into his house via a car part he had shipped from Texas.
