Itsy Bitsy Spider
Went to change our sheets yesterday and this damn thing was under my sheet.
Explains why I’ve been waking up with severe bites and rashes on my leg.
It’s a Marbled Orb Weaver or a Pumpkin Spider
The dr said I had a severe reaction to their venom. They’re not generally venomous, but you can be hyper-allergic to it.

Encountering spiders in your home can lead to unexpected situations. The Marbled Orb Weaver, also known as the Pumpkin Spider, is known for its distinctive color patterns and web-building abilities. Although not typically venomous, it can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, leading to severe itching, rashes, and even swelling. In this article, I share my personal experience of discovering an orb weaver under my sheets, which explained the mysterious bites I had been waking up with. It's crucial to be aware of your surroundings and understand common house spiders to avoid similar incidents. To mitigate the risk of allergic reactions, ensure your living spaces are clean and free from spider webs. Regularly changing bedding and checking for insects can help maintain a healthy environment. If you experience severe symptoms after a spider bite, consulting a healthcare professional is advisable for appropriate treatment and management of allergic reactions. Stay informed, and take proactive steps to protect yourself and your loved ones from unpleasant encounters with these arachnids.
