Look for the violin markings
The Brown Recluse spider/Fiddleback Spider has a necrotic venom. Their bite sometimes requires medical attention. Brown recluse spiders are usually between 6-20 mm but may grow larger. They are typically light to medium brown with a black line coming down their back that looks like a violin with the neck of the violin pointing to the rear of the spider resulting in the nicknames fiddleback spider, brown fiddler, or violin spider.
Living in secluded areas of the property
Adult brown recluse spiders often live about one to two years. The spider usually only bites when pressed against the skin, such as tangled within clothes, shoes, towels, bedding, inside work gloves, etc. The brown recluse spider lives in places that do not get disturbed often. While the majority of bites do not result in any symptoms, some of these bites become painful and itchy within 2 to 8 hours, the pain and other effects worsen 12 to 36 hours after the bite, and the necrosis develops over the next few days. Over time, the wound may grow as large as 25cm.
