The wife picked up our cat the other day and got bit by something. She said it has been very painful for the past 2 days. I think it was a spider, does anyone have any old time way of nursing a spider bite??
The problem is she never saw itNo sure were you live what spiders you have, but a brown recluse and black widow can be bad around here. Could have been a flea bite. To relieve the symptoms of fleabites, try over-the-counter anti-itch creams and antihistamines.

Picked up a watermelon in my patch a few days ago and there was a big black widow on the bottom. Pretty scary as I just soon pickup a snake. Not a spider fan.

I bought some plants at Walmart last year and when I got them home there sat a big brown recluse on them. Thank goodness I hauled them in my truck and not inside my SUV.

Fleas are small about the size of a tip of a pen. Their bites are very itchy, and the skin around each bite may become sore or painful. You may experience hives or develop a rash near the site of a bite. Scratching a lot can further damage the skin and potentially cause a bacterial infection in the area of the bite. Avoid scratching if you can. Monitor your bites for signs of an infection, including white-topped blisters or a rash.The problem is she never saw it
