movie blurb...arachnophobia...my friend says all 3 U.S. poison spiders live in oregon

Blurbat: A friend of mine recently told me that she just learned that all three types of U.S. poison spiders live in Oregon. Hobo, Black widow, and Brown Recluse. So I guess it's no surprise that I just got a call that there's a Brown Recluse spider in the bottom of her dirty clothes basket. I went to check it out. It released it outside. But then I got to thinking that I don't really know how to ID a BR spider. So I looked up the key, it's a violin shape behind the head.

Blurbat hopes that my friend won't feel like this every time she does her laundry:



I told her I thought she should confront her fears and watch the movie Arachiphobia..
