Snopes says pretty unlikely. I've seen Recluse bites, and they don't get that bad. Kind of a nasty infected scratch at worst.

Whatever that was, it's nasty as heck. it just ain't likely a Recluse bite like the urban legend claims.

The first good hard cold nights here in the fall are always a happy time because it knocks out those dam hobo spiders. I spray around the outside of the house regularly late summer to fall for those things. Hate em, they get really big here and they turn up all over in the basement.

we've got em around here. we've always called them fiddle backs because of the fiddle shape on their back. i've known a few people that have been biten but thankful to say i never have been, i have been biten by a black widow twice and evn though it doesn't rot the skin like that it still sucks pretty bad.

I have orb weavers in my backyard in jersey, this one got so big i named it louie, it parked itself out by my barbeque and over the course of the summer that thing got HUGE, the web it made was easily 4-5 feet across. I used to get drunk and watch the thing eat, it didn't bother me because i knew where it was at at all times, once time i went back there to bbq and i saw it wasn't on its web, those plans were cancled very quickly, take out anyone?
