Brown Recluse Spiders are not a naturally occurring arachnid in Alaska. They appear occasionally, usually entering the state through shipping pallets and other commerce activities. However, they cannot survive in the climate, so they die quickly. They are are very rarely ever seen.
Thus far the brown recluse is not listed as being found in Alaska, although there have been spiders that have been mistaken as the same. They have been confirmed in the Northern USA as well as Western Canada.

How does the brown recluse spider protect itself?
The spider gets its name because it loves to hide. To defend itself from potential predators, it bites the assaulter. If you live in a prominent area of brown recluse spiders, then you should be aware of its preferences for nutrition. A brown recluse spider hunts for prey during the night hours. It bites its prey, leaves it for dead, and then returns later to recover the corpse. The brown recluse spider will eat anything from small insects (like grasshoppers) to other spiders. Keep your home pest-free, keep the laundry off of the floor, keep your attic and basement clean, recycle old cardboard boxes, and seal any crevices in your home. This will help you fight off any infestations from these spiders and any other insect.

What a brown recluse eats?
The brown recluse spider is nocturnal, which means it searches for food during the nighttime hours. It is also a scavenger, preferring to feed on dead insects rather than live ones. If the brown recluse spider cannot find any dead insects, however, it will kill live ones, and it can travel quite a far distance from its web to find an insect to kill, often ending up indoors, where it will hide in items like shoes and clothing on the floor when daylight arrives.
