If it were an orb weaver, I would let it stay and eat bugs, but it's not. I would exterminate with extreme prejudice, especially if you have kids or pets around. And I would check for more.

That site had some good pictures. I had no idea there was so much variations in black widows (never seen one till two months ago), and had never even heard of brown widows till I moved out to CA. My apt complex has black widows out the wazoo, and my work site is covered with brown widows. Learning new stuff is fun!

It's mostly western black widows that have such color and pattern variance when young.

That video! I finally broke down and watched it. Oh.my.god.can't.breathe....gigglingtoohard...

The guy is like a hillbilly version of Danzig, and described the spider as "like a cocker spaniel"

(And now I wish my Arfname was "spraypants"!)




On a sadder note, we never did hear the final BW tally or got the "all clear"...I think the spiders got OP.


His name was Mo98.
