Black Widows are nasty business. Not as nasty as some of the spiders native to Australia,
but nasty and prolific enough that they concern me when I find one in my closet
On a related note, from what I read, the Golden Orb Weaver spins a web of similar
strength to the Black Widow. If you haven't ever felt a Black Widow web, I can tell you
it is quite strong.
Thanks (?)
for those other pics Smokester. That spider seriously does not look real.
