HELP PLEASE Spider Bite? BROWN RECLUSE?
I was in my basement doing yoga when I noticed a huge spider next to me on the floor. I have not have it trapped on the floor with a cup over it, but I think its a Brown Recluse, and I don't want to get bit plus I am terrified of Spiders.
Any Ideas of how to go about killing it without it biting me?

Dont let anyone in the basement and leave it in the cup it will suffocate, much less chance of you getting bitten.
If you cant wait I'd call some big brave friend to come deal with it, lol ;o))
I was bit by a recluse on the ankle, the skin was burned off immediately and it looked wicked. I did go to the doc, gave me an antibiotic for infection and put a gauze pad on and away I went. The diabetes issue..........just keep a close eye on the area around the bite, make sure the skin is coming back,no infection stuff like that. I think she will be okay, I want to thank you for caring so much about your grandma,you don't see that too much these days.........you are special,take care.
Brown Recluse spiders bite when in contact with human skin/body parts. So you would get bitten.
Your best bet is to call an exterminator.
put long jeans on not flares, straight leg.put long socks on and tuck the pants inside your socks then put work boots on. wear a long sleeved shirt and gloves, yet again tuck your shirt in your gloves. this sounds silly but wear swimming goggles and a winter hat. go into your basement and pick up the cup and immideately spill windex on it then replace the cup on it. go down the next day and do the same. in three days or less it should die, DONT smash it. when it is dead wear rubber gloves to pick it up, ONLY IF ITS DEAD!!! and put it in a tupper wear. take it to an exterminater and find out if it is poisonous because you will hav e more then just that one most likely if it is. hope i helped and good luck!
Get a can of spray anything and spray around the outside of the cup. Have rubbing achohol w/ you & pour it on him, it will stunn him. then stomp on it. Or just use bug spray if you have it.
get some tenis shoes on (dont not talk the cup off of it). right when you pick up the cup stomp on it. and make sure you have pants on!!!
Um, put on like long sock and big boots and if you find it stomp on it
if you can get close enough to put a cup over it you can get close enough to step on it
