This is a large widow spider found throughout the world commonly associated with urban habitats or agricultural areas.
A large female black widow spider can grow to about 1.5 inches (37 mm), counting leg-span.
As with many venomous creatures, the brightly colored markings serve as a warning to predators.
The adult female black widow typically hangs and moves about its web upside down.
Since the web is close to the ground, its hourglass is visible to most predators.
Adult female widows often spend their entire lives in one place.
Eating a black widow normally will not kill a small predator (birds, et cetera),
But the sickness that follows digestion is enough for the creature to Remember that the bright red marking means
"DO NOT EAT !!"
