Spiders are often depicted in popular literature as monsters who are out to eat those pesky humans. It does not help that some species of spiders are in real life venomous and that they look creepy. In reality, they are generally quite peaceful and they do not attack unless disturbed. However, there is a thin line between not attacking humans and them being disturbed.
Spiders have encroached on human living spaces; they can be found inside the homes, in garages, under your bed, and even inside your shoes. There are reports of someone being bitten as she wore her shoes, not knowing that a black widow spider was hiding in one of the shoes.
In this regard, spiders can cause harm and need to be removed from your homes, away from you and your loved ones.
Among the most common types of spiders found in North America are the black widow spider and the brown recluse spider.
The Black Widow Spider
In Lexington, black widow spiders are common and are known to be venomous. It is reported that a black widow’s venom is 15 times stronger than that of a rattlesnake. Fortunately, their bites are not usually fatal. That being said, they still can cause harm to humans.
The Brown Recluse Spider
The brown recluse spider is the only other poisonous spider that is found in the United States. Like the black widow’s, the brown recluse bite is painful but rarely is it fatal. It tends to keep to itself, but when disturbed it can be harmful. If bitten, place an ice pack on the bitten area and seek prompt medical care. If the spider can be captured, do so and put it in a container. The spider should be brought to the hospital along with the patient.
