Lactrodectus hesperus female is making me a lovely webbed gift. She was found at someone else work and called me to move her rather than kill her. It’s only been two days and she was getting released somewhere safe. Now what should I do.. 600 of these doesn’t sound fun at all.
@Drea About 15-20 years ago, I would regularly find Latrodectus mactans, but now I only find L. geometricus. Browns not only outbreed the native widows, but they tolerate more exposed habitats.
The only thing that seems to beat brown widows is Parasteatoda tepidariorum. Where they fluorish, I rarely find widows.
