In nature you will find it in holes in trees, under logs and other undisturbed areas. In your home it will also seek areas that offer protection like corners of closets, inside clothing or even in bed sheets. The Brown Recluse lives primarily in the South and Midwest but they can venture out of this area when transported in furniture or packing boxes.

Because of its reclusive nature it is not a very aggressive spider and will only bite when threatened. Unfortunately if it chooses a hiding place in clothing or in your bed it will feel threatened when you put the clothing on or roll over onto it.
