When you first said ...Ouch that looks a nasty bite. When you first said you were going to draw a circle around the swelling I thought it would be a much smaller one than that. Come to the UK, we don't have such spiders. We don't have hedgeapples either. They look very curious.

I did not know about the hedge apples but I have always thought they were so neat looking.

You can put peppermint oil on cotton balls and put them in dark places....it's suppose to help. We put hedge apples in our basement and around the house outside. Please be careful. xoxo,SusieSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425051654313691986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758419071318872390.post-17559513448726635202013-11-01T06:38:26.561-07:002013-11-01T06:38:26.561-07:00Hey I asked my Shug because I could not remember t...Hey I asked my Shug because I could not remember to save my life (see sidebar on turning 55-can't remember stuff) anyway the tree that grows hedge apples is an Osage Orange.

I got bit by a spider when we first moved here, about 20 years ago, and the bite swelled terribly, the skin around the bite did not completely heal for almost a year. We too have a lot of brown recluse spiders, they like to crawl out of our firewood at night, ooooooooo !<br /><br />Now, what are hedgeapples ? I have never seen one until this post.KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758419071318872390.post-71240654011604635892013-10-31T18:28:37.134-07:002013-10-31T18:28:37.134-07:00We have some nasty ones here too Jane.
