Do what you gotta do to get rid of them. Trust me, you do NOT wanna get bit by those.

reminds me of a time a few years back. im in bed, lights out etc, lying down, stomach down, blanket upto my neck. from nowhere i feel something crawling on my head, so i jump up, and look around an theres this fat ass spider lol. as soon as i go to switch the light on, the bastard dissapears, so im like o cool, go and grab my blanket, and its in there! it runs off (it was pretty speedy and i was sleepy) somewhere else into the room, i couldnt be bothered to find it so i went to sleep.

I saw this show on the Discovery channel about a couple who lived in an apartment that was infested with Brown Recluse Spiders. Because the husband had a serious reaction to a bite he had recently they decided to put traps around the bed and every morning they would wake up there would be several dead Brown Recluse Spiders on the traps.

Speaking of fat ass spiders, one day a few years ago there was this big ass spider (almost as big as one of those big ass Tarantula's that are the size of a small dinner plate, but it wasn't a Tarantula) and my cat was like, walking around it and hissing and ****, the thing was running from it and the cat was walking behind it, never touched it just hissing at it and prancing around it, next thing you know the damn thing is dead. We think it had a heart attack from the cat lol.

Yes, it's venom or w/e kills your skin, and whatever area the venom is injected to and spread to, the skin rots away.
The most poisonous spider in the world is the Granddaddy Longleg (what a name, lol), correct?
Correct me if I'm wrong.
BTW, it's not poisonous through it biting you, it's poisonous through you biting it, lol. If you eat it, you will die.

Heres what I get when I google Brown Recluse...

The physical reaction to a brown recluse spider bite depends on the amount of venom injected and an individual's sensitivity to it. Some people are unaffected by a bite, whereas others experience immediate or delayed effects as the venom kills the tissues (necrosis) at the site of the bite. Many brown recluse bites cause just a little red mark that heals without event. The vast majority of brown recluse bites heal without severe scarring (http://spiders.ucr.edu/avoidbites.html).

ive killed 3 or 4 in my room the past few months.
eggy told that stiry about the huge spider...that kinda thing happened to me too. i was sitting in my room reading a magazine and saw a huge brown blur come across the opposite page through the corner of my eye. so when i looked i freaked out and threw the magazine and he ran under the dresser. me and my brother moved all our furnature for like 45 minutes spraying everywhere w/bug-killer until we found him and i crushed him w/a boot.
and one time there was a scorpion in my room...he looked threatening so i got the attatchments on the vacuum and sucked his ass up.

Yeah, kind of hard to believe because it's just a lil harmless spider, it can't even bite you, but it's true. If not the most poisonous, it's one of the top poisonous in the world, but only if you eat them. There's a lot around here and I'm always afraid one of my pets will eat one, and my dog is ****ing stupid so he would, I gotta keep him away whenever there's one around.

i believe they are THE most poisonous, but you never hear anything about it because they are unable to bite through human skin so they dont do anything to you

Daddy long legs are not even spiders, they're harvestmen. Harvestmen have no venom.
