Fun fact, not everyone is reactive to it. I lived in a house with an infestation and got bit a ton and it never effected me, just regular spider bite redness.
...
Bitch, what
It's a thing. Search brown recluse toxicity on Google or whatever. Some people is very reactive and some people it's not, I don't know why and I don't honestly think science knows why yet.

Sure, whatever. There's also a pretty common misidentification issue with them but let's assume you're right...
Sue people for making you live in the Brown Recluse Gangbang House. That's not okay.
Not when you catch several and have them all identified by pest control.
I can't sue my parents dude, there were issues we move on.
How does this story keep having further trauma reveals?
Life is weird I guess?
Maybe they just built up immunity over time from many bites. You could probably do that too.
