Yeah, they get pretty big here and their bite while harmless is painful. We have a lot of recluses here and other types and while cleaning fish earlier this year I built a wooden platform for my wife to filet fish easier and one day she grabbed it, freaked out and took the picture below before killing it. Yes, it was a Black Widow.
Talking about spiders: Jan still has a house in town. It had roof damage from the tornado last year. We did some cleanup work inside today. Just doing a little at a time. Lots of spiders. After the tornado, it took us a full day with a chain saw just to get to the front door. We found the roof damage and went to Lowes to get tarps and other repair supplies. Biden came to town, and they had the roads blocked plus the storm still had roads blocked, so we couldn't get back to the house right away to do emergency repair on the roof. In the meantime, another heavy rainstorm hit. Parts of the ceiling caved in. No one was living there at the time, so no one was hurt. Not sure what we are going to do with it.
I enjjoyed botth!
It's what they do best.
Playing not to lose and not to get hurt.
Yeah! I heard that and then convinced myself I misheard it. lol Thanks.
