The Black Widow spider is one of the few extremely venomous spiders found in the United States. Like most spiders, they can be shy, but won’t hesitate to give you a potentially deadly bite if disturbed.

The Black Widow can be found around homes, yards, and businesses, and their venom has been reported to be fifteen times stronger than a rattlesnake’s. So it’s important to get control of this dangerous pest.

The Black Widow spider can be found throughout the world, and throughout the United States but are more densely distributed in the American South and West where the climate is hot, arid, and humid.

Black Widows are relatively small - measuring around a half and one and a half inches long. The female Black Widow is easily identified by their jet black and shiny body and their distinctive red marking on their stomach. Male and some other types of Black Widows are actually a brown or tan color, and could have orange markings.

Black widow spiders like to hide in dry, cluttered storage areas like attics, basements, or garages. They can be found outside in yard debris like wood, under rocks, and tall grass. They can also be found in barns, outhouses, and sheds. To get control, first reduce clutter in and around your home as much as possible.

After that, it’s time to move on to chemical control.

First, use Reclaim IT insecticide with a pump sprayer. Reclaim IT is a powerful liquid concentrate with a long lasting residual. Spray baseboards around the home and in closets, in and around garages, and around windows and doors.

You can also use a product like Pyrid aerosol for quick contact kills.

Also use Catchmaster glue boards to trap hard to find spiders. This is a board with a sticky surface that will trap the spiders and other crawling pests. The spiders will walk across the boards and get stuck and can then be disposed of. Place these in garages, closets, and storage areas.

Next use D-Fense dust to treat any voids. This is a waterproof insecticidal dust that can be puffed into voids and openings around your home. Using a duster, apply D-Fense into voids that Black Widows and other pests can use to enter your home. You can then seal these voids with a fine copper mesh or caulk.

Finally, use Reclaim IT outside, and spray flower and mulch beds, around rocks, around yard debris, eaves, and light fixtures. Also create a barrier around your home by spraying two the three feet up the structure and two to three feet out.

These professional products and steps will not only help you control black widow spiders, but many different types of pests. This is ideal because it eliminates the spiders’ food source, giving you effective, long-lasting control.

Black widows are pretty docile. You only get bit if you push on them. Just don't put your hands anywhere you can't see. If they were really that agressive, you would hear about many more hospital visits. They are literally everywhere and people rarely get bit.

I keep their numbers low by picking them off at night. I go blackwidow hunting at night with Raid and a flash light.

[coiby]

Its not even if theyre disturbed. While i wouldnt suggest messing with one, you could technically let one you find crawl on your hand and move it. They dont wanna bite you. They just want the bugs, theyll only bite if they're threatened like if theyre trapped between skin

The black widows around my home are not shy at all, I've killed so many just hanging out in the open. I wish they were shy!

Most spiders are harmless, and are beneficial to have around your property. However, there are 2 types of spiders in North America which should cause some alarm: the black widow and the brown recluse spider. If you have a black widow infestation on your hands, you'll need to take immediate action. It's also good to know a few techniques for killing individual spiders you encounter, so you can keep your family safe!

Goodness. “Won’t hesitate to bite if disturbed” “black widows are very shy spiders” All she wants to do is hide from you if you disturb it.

Recently killed three black widows in my garage while cleaning. I’ll admit my garage was dirty. Invest in some type of garage organization. I could tell that they are killing the roaches but I just can’t have them around my garage. Too scared.

[eddelp]

I go night hunting with a flashlight and bug spray done. Only sunlight bothers, I'm not light.

[jenizirbel]

I just found a female black widow in my kitchen pantry. Unfortunately I lost it and I don’t know where she went. I have cats so I don’t know what to use that is safe. I’m worried my cat will be interested in the spider and it’ll bite him.

I moved in my house last year and been catching black widows every since. In garage and out backyard. Doing tons of yard work and remove old garden junk they had. Been successful and haven’t seen one for 6months til tonight. Fattest black widow with huge sac under solar light next to old wood. I killed with spray of hornet / ant killer then smash the egg nest. Here to find out how to prevent other widows and hope the eggs didn’t hatch yet since widow look FAT still.

Never felt good hearing those little mice stuck to those sheets. Pretty disturbing, so I'd oil them off and let them free somewhere else. My old boss would use them, but I'm not enough of a monster to throw away a living starving creature.
