Latrodectus hesperus?

Is there any market for Western black widows?? I'm forced to kill them by the dozen here where I live, as they are popping up all over the place inside and outside my apartment and garage, and I just thought there might be ppl out there who actually WANT them? In the past week I've probably killed at least 2 mature males and half a dozen females and caught 3 juvi females just for the heck of it...

Yah, same here... A population explosion of the local Aphenopelmas would be fine, but I can do without the parade of medically significant spiders running around my house!! Just thought I'd make the offer before committing mass murder on the population here.

Same here in Colorado...I have a dozen of them because my Coworkers keep catching them in their garage and I have raised a half dozen from egg sac as well.
