Jean, Thank you so much for sharing your story! Marvelous results and great information on 'tactics' if anyone else encounters this. Amazing!
Thanks again!

I had approximately 8 months to think about what to do if this ever happened again, so was prepared. Even then I panicked, thinking about how much pain and length of time would be involved if I was wrong. I'd been cleaning cobwebs with a long handled brush, the exact same thing I'd been doing the first time. It is a shed that builds up with spiders and webs because it is dry and ideal for them. I was very careful this time, to make sure I didn't stand under when cleaning the webs. I then took a letter to the mailbox and by the time I got back to the porch, I felt an intense itch, a '10' on the scale. I pulled my jeans up and saw a glowing red bubble about the size of my little finger. I ran for the house and found the 'Thera Pik'. This is a 9 V battery operated gadget that will stop chigger bites, wasp bites etc, but is NOT recommended for spider bites. It works by heat and kills the enzyme from the bites. Since the Epsom Salts worked so well, considering, the first time, I rationalized it might very well work if you used it before the bite spread. I used the 'Thera Pik' and never once felt the heat, which is not a good sign. When my finger got tired, I released the trigger. There was quite an indention around the bite but the itching had stopped. This was on my shin between my knee and instep. By then, with the first emergency out of the way, I realized I had a second bite on the same leg, in the groin. Again, used the 'Thera Pik' but the heat was felt after awhile, unlike the first bite. I then used the 'Thera Pik' a second time on the first bite and finally felt some heat after awhile. I then used hydrogen peroxide, colloidal sliver, oil of oregano, would have used some ozonated olive oil but couldn't find it, then thought of bagging and using ozone. I just wrapped the areas with plastic wrap and ran the hose under for awhile. Both bites felt very intense, not itchy but like a volcano might feel, about to erupt. I then thought of using some bentonite clay and paper tape. It felt very soothing. I kept the clay and paper tape going for 5 days and then quit since there was no reason to continue. If I ever have to do this again, would definitely use the 'Thera Pik", clay and paper tape. Also the ozone, since I have it. My opinion is, the 'Thera Pik' killed the BRS enzyme and the clay soothed and enhanced the heat therapy. The ozone was good insurance.
