Here’s a fact. Insects are horrible little monsters capable of killing you or causing you to starve to death. 20 million people die every year from the diseases carried by mosquitoes. Most of those people are children under the age of six.Insects such as locusts, grasshoppers, various species of beetles, aphids, etc are all destroyers of human food crops. Spiders on average, kill 50% of the insects that destroy human food crops. Without spiders, millions of people would die of starvation.Your empathy for insects is misguided. If you want to save the insect, you have to save it before the gets in the web or in the spider’s jaws. Billions of insects and billions of spiders die all around the world daily, and rather than worry about one single insect feeding one spider, I suggest you either do your research on spiders vs. insects pests, or at least find a hobby.
Spider Bite vs Brown Recluse?
Typical brown recluse spider bite takes almost a week to start noticing major differences in it from the initial bite. The initial bite usually produces almost a bullseye of colors turning red and white and such, sort of the way you describe it. The worst part about it is that, there is no anti-venom for a brown recluse spider bite, so you really have no choice except to hope that your body can fight it off. If you start noticing anything around the area starting to turn a brownish blackish color, and start to lose feeling/sensations around the area, then thats the time to go to the doctor! Brown recluse bites are nasty, but most of the time your body is able to fight it off and get rid of the infection. Make sure you keep the area very clean for the next week or 2 to ensure nothing else happens.
Spider bite? Or is it something else ?
I doubt the spiders in your room would ever bite you. This sounds more like a skin abscess or maybe a minor staph infection. Could even be an ingrown hair. Spiders don't bite sleeping humans, and if you did get a bite, they are a bit like an ant sting, or in worst case, a mild bee sting. They may itch for a while, but they quickly go away. Any spider that might cause a significant injury, is going to be quite painful, and wold probably cause a lot of swelling.
Spider bite is getting worse?
that's going to be particularly effortless to eliminate in case you follow those classes: purchase some Charcoal pills. Get a plate and twist or decrease open the pill. Pour the contents of the pill onto the plate. Use basically the different Charcoal interior it. Get some drops of water on your finger and make a easy paste and positioned it onto a band-help. place the band-help heavily on the affected section. replace the band-help each now and back. Charcoal is a organic substance and that's notably absorbent.
Spider bite questions?? ASAP plzz?
Spiders generally don't bite people, at least not to feed off - they prefer things like bugs which they inject with their venom (all spiders have some kind of venom even if it isn't harmful to humans) - the venom either liquidises the insides of the 'victim' so the spider can suck up the juice from the liquidised bug, or it kills or paralises the victim so the spider can then feed in peace. So that's how they feed which is why I don't think a spider would just be biting you like a mosquito or a flea would as spiders don't drink blood on its own like the other blood suckers do. Spiders usually only bite humans as a last resort, when they feel threatened. I got bitten by a harmless house spider once when I sat on it (it was on my bed) and it did nip me and left two tiny puncture wounds. It sounds to me like it could be a mozzie or flea bite which has got infected - this has also happened to me, I got a mozzie bite on my leg and it went very red and sore and didn't heal up - I had to go to the doctors and get antibiotics in the end. The wound was like a perfectly round circle with a round patch of inflamed skin around it, about the size of a saucer when it was really bad (It looked like a bullet wound!). I'd suggest you go and see your doctor just in case that's what's happened to you - if it is an infected bite you need to try and catch it before it gets too inflamed. See what the doc says - they might be able to shed more light on what it is. If they do think it's something like fleas or mozzies, you'll need to give your room a good spray and leave it closed up for a few hours (if it's fleas you might need to do your matress on your bed too).

i've curently have the exact same bite! and yeah so i now how feels. I'm not sure what spider bit him (or me for that matter) but you need to take him to the doctors so they can open up the bite and disinfect it. if you dont, well your bf is going to get a chunk of himself taking out. you need to go to the doctors as soon as possible! but yeah after there done they'll perscribe some pills to help the infection go away and there going to tell you to keep it clean with soap and water, so wash it daily. there might still be sum puss in the wound so you'll have to squeeze it out and then throughly wash it. and keep a banaid on it o keep it from getting dirty. and yeah the doctors are gona tell you that also if it does not get better after 10days, then our gona have to take him bac to be relooked at. so yeah take him to the doctors so this can be takin care of fast so it doesnt get worse, trust me, i was practically screaming because of how bad my side hurt from the bite when they were cleaning it out even when they numbed my entire side! anyways so take him to the doctor and get it checked out. hope it goes well!!

If you thought you were seriously in danger, you would not by typing on the computer ;-) EDIT: Wait, isn't the Netherlands one of The People's Socialist Paradises? Don't you have free medical care?
I got two spider bites last night.?
As somebody else suggested-benadryl gel works the main suitable. even no rely if it rather is an off or regularly occurring style. it is not correct what the itching is led to by skill of (poison ivy, oak, mosquito, spider, and so on and so on), it rather helps relieve it (i swear by skill of those issues! i take advantage of it all of the time). one situation my grandmother used to do grew to become into combination baking soda with water to a paste, and then placed it on mosquito bites and bee stings to assist do away with any soreness, so which you additionally can attempt that. The paste dries up and hardens and sucks the moisture/venom out of the bitten section, and as a result relieves it.
Spider bites in sleep?
brown recluses can at times be territorial and have been known to do this. Kill this spider and it will probably stop. It will be hiding near the bed. Brown recluses are one of the most common indoor spiders in the Midwest area. If the bite seems to become infected you should see a doctor for antibiotics since some of the bacteria the spider introduces can cause problems. Otherwise don't worry...just squish this particular spider. From what little I can see....it does appear to be a brown recluse bite. I do not want to give the wrong impression. The spider is not deliberately coming out and biting tour boyfriend. It is getting between the sheet and him and when he moves wrong it squeezes the spider a little and it bites. The problem is that because they have a territory....they tend to keep coming back to the same general areas each night to feed. So end up biting repetitively over multiple nights.
Why is my spider bite hard?
My wife has a similar bite to yours about two weeks ago at night. It was painful, had a red dot with a raised circle around it that was pretty big. We watched it for about two days and made sure she didn't have a fever or other odd symptoms and that it didn't make a large ulcer. She works in a hospital and asked one of her doctors to take a look at it. He confirmed it was a spider bite and said to put Neosporin on it. This will help keep out any infections as it may blister a little bit as it heals. The puss that you saw might just be the body attacking the venom. Just be sure that your puss doesn't continue to happen on a continual basis. This could be a sign of an infection. In such case you will need to see a doctor. Also continue to watch that it does not turn black or purple. In all cases if anything continues for more than a week it would be advisable to see a doctor or a nurse-practitioner in your area. Seeing as you do not have insurance you may want to call around to see if any hospitals in your area do "flat-rate" clinics. I hope this helps.
