I've killed 17 of the little bastards in/around my house in the last 7 months. For the first five years here I never saw one. We have daddy long legs everywhere, but I had not seen a black widow before this past December. I killed that one. Then over Memorial day weekend I killed three. One was a big one under the grill similar to the one you found. Over the next month I found a couple more hanging out around the front porche. Last week one found it's way inside. That really freaked my wife out, and set me on the war path. I started turning ***** over, and looking inside stuff all over the yard. I found, and killed a couple more the next day. Then the same day I jacked up my 911 to start on a suspension refurb. I saw the random webs, and said cr*p! So I put the car up jack stands, then that night I checked under the car because them f*ckers are nocturnal. There were two of them, and they had built webs from the bottom of the car to the floor. I killed them both. Over the last couple weeks I've found, and killed six more. Almost every time I think of a place they might be hiding I find one or more there.
I also found out that a seven year old boy neighbor down the street was bit a couple months ago, and ended up spending three days in the hospital. They can't give the young kids the anti-venom.
