Yes. Another term for it is "necrosis" and it is when the cells simply die. The venom of a Brown Recluse are deadly to living cells. If this happens you need to seek medical attention immediately, as necrosis is severe and can be fatal if not taken care of by a medical expert.

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.
