Brown Recluse spiders are prevalent in NH - though folks said they were not --
our neighbor ( lives 3 houses away from the shelter) has serious loss of tissue to his
left leg ( lower) form just such a bite!
He got the bite in June and it is not healed yet!

[Moderator's Note: Brown Recluse bites cause deep abscessing and they are good at
breaking skin. I can believe that they are in NH because even in my teens they were on
Long Island although they weren't publicly admitted to being established there until
recent years. We had a population in the entranceway to our ex-home's basement
there when I was growing up with ID confirmed by a SUNY SB prof in related field back
then.]
