For those who don't know, the Black Widow Spider is the deadliest spider on Earth, and fortunately for me...they're very common up here! 
They hang around all over places, especially messy spots, like junk piled around somewhere. Well, my former neighbor and his family was pretty messy. I ended up moving into that place about 4 months ago. I think May 31st. That place was infested with cockroaches all over the damn house. Being me, I can't smash one without feeling bad so i catch 'em and throw 'em outside. We're still fixin' the place up (my dad, a few friends and cousins) , and in the backyard, it's very trashy and there's a lot of junk. UH-OH! So were moving shit around trashing stuff and throwing big objects in the back of the trunk to haul to the dump, when all of a sudden, we lift a big board and there runs a black widow. I, at the time was organizing all the stuff in the back of the truck so more junk could fit. Who woulda knew that all those years of playing Tetris would finally pay off some day. My dad ended up stepping on her, Im pretty sure a her because she looked pregnant. We ended up finding an egg close by and we destroyed that. I still find Black Widow's around off and on. I found 3 today hanging around a piece of tarp. They ran off somewhere, just hope they dont end up biting me in the ass. I didn't think this topic would end up as long as it did, so just tell me, are black Widow's common where you live? Have you even seen one? Here's a few pics.....

I would say they're uncommon where I live. I haven't seen any around.
