Black widow spiders found in WNY

My original post was in regards to this one.

Not in regards to your fruitless arguement over which is more dangerous, black widow v. brown recluse.

finding a black widow is like the chances of finding a timber rattler…

ohh wait…

I step on em all fuck’d if i care what “spices” they are!

Initially, the bite may feel like a pinprick or go unnoticed. Some may not be aware of the bite for 2 to 8 hours. Others feel a stinging sensation followed by intense pain. Infrequently, some victims experience general systemic reactions that may include restlessness, generalized itching, fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, or shock. A small white blister usually initially rises at the bite site surrounded by a swollen area. The affected area enlarges and becomes red, and the tissue is hard to the touch for some time. The lesion from a brown recluse spider bite is a dry, blue-gray or blue-white, irregular sinking patch with ragged edges and surrounding redness–termed the “red, white, and blue sign.” The lesion usually is 1½ inches by 2¾ inches or smaller. Characteristics of a bite are further discussed at American Medical News - Home - amednews.com.

thanks walter

google owns y ass…but anywho, yeah brown recluse and black widows are bad moter fuckers…thats why im glad i live here…u hardly ever see e.

Not true, rattel snakes use to be very abundant around here untill people started killing the off and destroying their nests. black wiodow spiders prefer a warer cliate. they are very rare around here, however, rattlesnakes, are not as rare, not as coon as they once were, but are coing back.

Oh crap… they are coing back… I don’t know what that means but I’m scared.

use to = many years ago, before u or i were even born.
i dont know of anyone that caught or at least seen a rattler around here.

ps - and i thought i sucked at spelling

MAybe some rattlers will escape from the Buffalo zoo and have an orgy. Never say never :stuck_out_tongue:

He’s Stone Cold…they wouldnt be attracted to his body heat.

Ya… good one.

thats his name MOTHER FUKKKA, Rattler 3:16, means I JUST BIT UR ASS

I killed a rattlesnake in my back yard… :gotme:

actually the brown recluse was found in a shipment of grasshoppers to petsmart in Hamburg. The called UB to take care of it. Freaky though.

Now you guys got me all freaked out, I hate spiders and I have to go cut firewood today thats been sitting in the barn all summer. Bastards!!

actually…no spider can penetrate human skin with its bite. They use telepathy to get into your head and make you bite yourself

they’re not quite as bad as brain slugs though

-Cheater-

Now i’m really freaked out I had to do 40 hours of community service, and I had always heard of brown recluse spiders being in the area…just never imagined I would ever see one.
anyways I had to do my CS at the Elma transfer station(town dump)
I definately killed a brown recluse, I stabbed it with my metal rake then watched it shrivel up and then picked it up with a piece of paper to check it out and it looked exactly like the pic that someone just posted. thats fucking creapy
