Best Answer

The range of Brown Recluse Spiders is at least heading up in that direction. Whether there are such spiders in Kelowna or not is probably something that only city or provincial officials keep statistics on. The Biology department of the nearest university might be another good place to ask.

Does the brown recluse spider live in southern Iowa?

According to the Wikipedia and other articles here is their range:The brown recluse spider is native to the United States from the southern Midwest south to the Gulf of Mexico .[2] The native range lies roughly south of a line from southeastern Nebraska through southern Iowa, Illinois, and Indiana to southwestern Ohio. In the southern states, it is native from central Texas to western Georgia. They are generally not found west of the Rocky Mountains.[3] A related species, the brown violin spider (Loxosceles rufescens), is found in Hawaii.[4] Despite many rumors to the contrary, the brown recluse spider has not established itself in California,[5] nor Canada[6]. There are other species of Loxosceles native to the southwestern part of the United States, including California, that may resemble the brown recluse, but these species have never been documented as medically significant.


What kind of spider has a black body with tan diamonds on its back?

It could be a wolf spider which has bites are are painful but not poisonous. There are many common house spiders that have these markings.


You found a spider in your home and its brown in color how do you find out what kind of spider it is?

You would first have to check the size of the spider. If it is a huge spider, it is obiously a tarantula. (Depending on location, very unlikely that it is a tarantula) If it is small, check for violin-shaped markings on the abdomen (the 'violin' markings of the brown recluse are on the cephalothorax where the legs are attached). If there are, the spider is a brown recluse. Depending on location, size, body shape, coloration, web or not, and where in your house, it could be any number of harmless spiders. A more detailed description would yield more information. ---------------------------- If it has a violin on it's back, kill it immediately! It's a Brown Recluse (A.K.A. The Violin Spider). The Brown Recluse has an acid-like venom that melts skin tissue, muscle & fat. If it's fuzzy, kind of large, & somewhat bright, also kill it immediately. It's a Wolf Spider. Their venom isn't deadly, or nearly as toxic as the Violin Spider, but their bites are very painful, they swell, they itch, & in some cases, can make you nauseous.

Are there spider in Ohio that when bitten cause the skin to break down?

The brown recluse is found there. Some staph infections also mimic a recluse spider bite as well.ANS2:Yes, that is the mechanism of injury for all spider venom. Since they can't chew, they inject their prey with their proteolytic venom and the tissue turns into a 'bug smoothie' that they suck out. The Brown Recluse and the Black Widow spiders are found in Ohio and their venoms are particularly good at liquefying human tissue.
