Desert Recluse Loxosceles deserta Contrary to rampant fears, brown recluse spiders do not inhabit Southern California. The local Desert Recluse spider, however, can be found in arid, inland and desert regions south of Fresno. Identified by consistent tan color, six distinctive eyes, no spines on legs, and fine hairs on abdomen. Recommended bite treatment: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation (R-I-C-E). In 10% of cases, venom can cause slow, necrotic, skin-eating reaction that requires medical intervention.
