- Move beds away from walls and curtains.
- Remove or adjust bed skirts that touch the floor.
- Do not leave clothes or towels on the floor.
- Shake out articles of clothing before putting them on.

- Keep shoes in plastic storage containers.
- Store articles of clothing in sealed plastic containers inside drawers or closets.
Brown Recluse Spider Bites
If you are bitten by a Brown Recluse spider, seek medical attention immediately; even if you only suspect the biting culprit to be a Brown Recluse. Early stages of Brown Recluse bites have been passed off as something less significant until rotting dead tissue (necrosis) begins to set in. By then, it’s too late, with treatment possibly requiring skin grafts. The longer a bite victim waits to seek medical treatment, the less effective that treatment will be.
Initially, a bite will look like a raised, red, bump that is accompanied by tremendous pain. A bite will soon blister, turn white, and then eventually turn black as the skin dies.
