No antidote at home although I'm sure the local hospital is prepared to treat bites. We also have the "Brown Recluse" spider here as well& their bite is said to be worse...I keep a healthy distance when shooting them. I did take an egg sac last year & put it in a plastic container until they hatched...Lot's & lots of little spiders running around then...I released them in the woods out behind my house...
