So I got this new table/fire pit and I opened it up and found this.

[img]Black Widow IMG_0509[/img]

There was a time when I would just have killed this and not asked any questions. I was asked numerous times by my kids and my wife to kill it. I asked them if they had plans on playing with it, to which they all replied "no". I told them that if they are not going to touch it then it will not bother then. I refused to kill it. It's funny how I mature in some areas and regress in others. I wont kill one of the two venomous spiders in America but I will fart in public and look at someone and say "it's natural". Life is weird.

I have an iPhone 4, no 4s (yet >_>), but I love the camera on it. It takes great pictures. Very Happy

Beautiful! I love black widows, I do keep them on occasion, my brother used to bring them to me from his construction job and I would make them a habitat and give them food for a few days and let them go in the woods. Great pics!

Nick, go look under your water meter box cover. When I read water meters I would see them all day long, on top of those you will find some nice snakes under there as well.

Great pics!
Because it is a female and will probably produce an egg sack soon, I would relocate it.

Also just go under your house if you are on a crawl. Plumbers find them all the time under there as well and send us pictures back to the office.

I finally relocated her. It was making everyone nervous so I caved to the pressure.
