Hi. Since the list of states in which recluses have been intercepted is long, and does NOT mean there are recluses in those states, there is no point fear-mongering by listing them all in the text of the article. It serves NO PURPOSE to inform people that a single brown recluse was once found in a moving van entering Maine, for example, and can only cause needless distress among readers who overreact to such things. It is enough that the readers are given a link to a reference that has such a list. Let's try to keep the article short and sweet and free of sensationalism.
