Living in a home with brown recluse spiders might sound like a nightmare to most people, but as Sunni Son shared with PEOPLE, it’s just a reality of life in Arkansas. The 37-year-old mother has spent nearly two years documenting her family’s experience with these venomous arachnids, and despite what you might see on social media, she insists, “I have never felt more calm in this journey.” She posts her experiences on TikTok under the handle @lambbchops.
The outlet noted that the internet often reacts with panic or suggestions that she should pack up and move, but Son is staying put. She says that moving would likely just lead her family to another home where these spiders are just as prevalent. For Son, the reality of living with them became impossible to ignore in June 2024, when a tornado tore through their property.
