This guy's story gives me the willies.
I can just imagine the bite a little more
centrally located. What a bummer way it
would be to lose them.

I was once moving some old fence posts. I
wound up having a black widow crawl down my
arm. I flicked it off, no poblem.

birch, as you know, you are correct about the brown recluse not being in WA. I was told my a native Washiontonian that they lived here, but obviously he was wrong.

Here is another good article on different spiders including the brown recluse and where they do live:

I found my first black widow spider last week. It was in my barbeque grill. I had never seen one before. It was awesome looking; It was just like a poster, but I killed it anyway.

Yeah Embear, that was a joke. Not quite a squirrel but a large rodent.
