Hello Tim T. & All,
Thanks for the recluse information. I have been told that the large wolf
spider will seek out and kill brown recluse. True or false?

I see a couple other spiders in my area that look similar to the brown
recluse but do not have the violin and the color is off. I have been told
that for some reason not all recluse today have got the violin mark. True
or false?

 These other spiders I do not believe are recluse because they come out at
night in the country under lights. These spiders  are slow and do not seem
aggressive.

At the Missouri state fair I asked the Missouri conservation people about a
small wolf spider which is black with a red dot on the back. They said I
must be talking about a black widow. I said no as the black widow is similar
in shape to a recluse except for the thin legs and the spider I see is a
wolf spider. Ever see a black wolf spider with a red spot Tim?
