Fiddleback/Brown Recluse   LOVE  dark places.

Outhouses are a favorite hangout for them.

Killed a couple of those Brown Recluse here.
They are easily the fastest spiders I've ever seen.
They SCOOT.  Look up photos on Google and beware.
The last one was in a pile of bed clothing stored in a shed.
I was bitten just below the groin once
as well- don't know what kind of spider, but it rotted
out a place big as a nickle and deep.  Took weeks to
heal and I have a big scar.

When it comes to spiders,
I'm like Lewis Grizzard was about snakes:
   "They say there are good snakes and bad snakes,
    but that's just Greenpeace propaganda.
    All wise people know
    there is only one kind of snake:
    The Cotton-mouthed,Copper-headed,Water-Rattling COBRA!"

Kill'em; let God sort'em out.
