I caught a black widow too. In our backyard.
Freaked me out. You see, my son likes to catch them. I don't, but the black widow was an exception. The really freaky thing was that after I put it in a glass jar, it clung to the lid. So you might think the jar is empty, open it, and surprise, black widow heart attack!

man, I am all for supporting the curiosity of a child
but when we had multiple black widows taking over the front of our house, I couldn't even bring myself to walk through the front door for 2 weeks.
Then the exterminator came... hence my sig :)

There are bigger geckos that stake out rooms in the house.
