Seeing we are sharing spider stories...I received a white tail bite to the lower left leg, the bugger being in my pants before I put them on. Little pain from the bite, but the area swelled, inflected, and became ulcerated within one month. No medication seemed to help. The doctor later felt they should have cut the area clean, but I didn't like the sound of that. More than two years later the ulcerated area is still highly visible, and rashes occasionally.

Clearly the advice is DON'T GET BITTEN!

Bye!

Steve
