Insect and Spider Identification: Egg sacs?, 0 by maschwanden

These are brown recluse egg sacs, not brown widow eggs. Brown widow egg sacks are yellowish with pointed projections. People commonly confuse the two spiders. I think because their bite and toxic effects are similar. I am posting pictures of brown recluse and their egg sacs that I found under a piece of furniture at a family member's house for you to compare. The first photo contains an image of the brown recluse eggs, the second photo contains an image of the molting shell of the brown recluse, the third photo contains another molting shell hanging next to the egg sacs, the fourth photo contains a live spider with a distinctive violin shape on it's back. Hope this helps...
