Black Widow Spider In Our Garage

Fires aren’t the only danger here in Southern California. This Black Widow spider made a nice home in one of our lounge chairs in the garage. We found her yesterday afternoon. Female Black Widow spiders do pose a real danger, so she is now deceased.

    1. This is not a black widow.

    2. The red markings on it’s underbelly sure seemed to indicate it was.
