The girl's dormitory at the college I went to had some issues with brown recluse spiders.  Those things give some really nasty bites. 

The worst thing about brow recluse spiders is that you don't know they're there till you get bit. They end up hiding in clothing, and aren't agressively seeking out prey, and then you take the shirt out and put it on and pull it tight over your back and the next thing you know you feel a sharp stinging sensation because the spider freaked out when it got squished against your skin.

They're pretty docile otherwise. There are reasons they're called "recluse".

Kai, can you tell us more about the brown/black house cheese-eating Dutch spider species?
