Field Notes

Description:

Classic Black Widow abdomen shape, with bright orange hour glass on bottom of abdomen. Creates messy, tangled web, of impressive tensile strength. Sacks are pale beige, with many spiked protuberances, though soft throughout. Hides in tiny, dark, hidden spaces, such as under trash can handles, chair leg pipes, crevices and crannies outdoors, more often preferring man made items in carport and/or garage areas, stables, coops, etc.

Habitat:

Outdoors, nooks and crannies in and under man made items, in stables, coops, cans, boxes, in well-hidden crevices and dark, tiny spaces.
