Hi all,
I just signed up to get advice with this!
So I was cleaning my back porch today and found 3 egg sacs in a web, of course I swept them down and kept cleaning. Turned back around and saw a huge Black Widow spider going up to the door corner where the eggs were!!! I'm sorry if this is offensive, but I freaked out and squished it with the broom handle.
So now I have 3 egg sacs in a jar, and the dead squished Black Widow is still on my porch.
The eggs sacks do not look opened, but 2 of them are wrinkled and dry. One is soft.
Did they hatch babies into my house already? Or do you think since there is no big hole, then perhaps they did not hatch yet?
Also, what should I do about squished mom spider? If she had eggs in her abdomen already, can they hatch if I leave her outside (dead)?
I'm a bit scared right now. Thank you if you can advise or help!! xo
