Best Answer

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.
