Scared of spiders...?
Well, I just found a spider in my blanket and now I'm scared to go to sleep...I sleep in my living room on the floor so it kinda makes it worse but I like sleeping on the floor better than on my bed...Anyways, how can I go to sleep without being scared of waking up with bites all over my body?

I live in Missouri. Are Black Widows or Brown Recluse spiders here? Or are they everywhere?
Answers:
Sounds like you're more afraid of the spider bites than the spiders themselves. If you haven't had one before, you may not be prone to them. I've never had a spider bite in my entire life (which may be good karma for saving spiders, because I love them, hehe).
Fortunately, according to people I know who have been bitten by spiders, they don't cover your body with bites. Most often, the person only had one or two bites. Compared to a bee sting or a mosquito bite, they're mild.
