It is a younger female black widow. The young ones have that brownish color to them.

Pretty hard for the average blok to tell the immature female and male apart. Ironically I would have called Travis's an immature male and the one you posted an immature female. I usually tell "guess" by the pronounced thingamijiggers on their front end(males have them females don't). Fortunately they usually get the stomp so it really doesn't matter. :)
I got the pic from a bug website and they called it a male. The females were all black. with no red on the top just the red hourglass on the belly. Grew up in Yakima and had blackies all the time. Even caught them and kept them in glass jars and fed them other spiders and bugs. Never saw any blackies with these type of markings until the 90's. I guess they came up from California with migrants.

Saw a few when I lived in E-Burg, thank god we don't have those things on the west side. Love being able to root around in my garage without having to worry about themI swore when i was at school in Eburg I saw one but everyone told me they dont exist in washington. It was this time of year and i opened the driver door to my rig and it dropped down by my seat somewhere and disappeared. I was freaked for weeks.

THats how I got nailed. Pulling down snowtire from the rafters. Bit me in the hand. I though I was going to lose it. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE stomach cramps. Man I was sick and my hand turned black.
I'm never going to use an out house or sanican on the eastside ever again :yike:
I've seen and killed plenty in Arizona, but never here.
Very cool pictures!

Cool Pics. Good job with the squishing. But....a sheet of plywood? Isn't that like using a .338 on grouse?
Post by: tlbradford on October 21, 2012, 01:26:36 PM
About a week ago, I killed one right at the entrance to the house. Then the next morning at about 5:30 am I open the same entrance and walk right through some webbing. I spaz out and throw my hat off and sweep my face and shoulders. Luckily, it was just a house spider that dropped off of me, but I was close to needing a change of drawers.

I think you are missing the immature part. Yes, we all know about big blackies. Thats a MATURE female.

:salute: freaky cool pic still hate em with a passion.This whole thread makes my skin crawl. Funny that someone mentioned plywood sheet being the same as using a .338, given the choice I would use that .338 on the spider.
Makes my skin crawl lol.

So will the spider in my photo eventually lose most of its color and get a pale brown with very little markings?Let it bite you. If your arm turns black and almost falls off and you feel like dieing, then its a female and will probably turn black........If it bites you and nothing but a little welt appears its a male. :)
Honestly Travis, that would be my guess, but like I said , they tend to get the boot prior to any skirt lifting. :)

I think I will wait to put air in my pressure tank AFTER it freezes hard. :yike:

on a side note, I flipped the cover off my entrance to go under my house and there were no less than 30 immature ones crawing everywhere. If that doesn't make you pucker when you crawl under your house......

They need to make throwable bug bombs, all the ones I see have to sit upright. Kick the door open, throw four or five under house and wait four hours. That would be great.

sure they're fun to look at in photographs and glass cases but around me and my domain, they get the boot ASAP no questions asked without hesitation (after i'm done running and screaming like a little girl of course)! :chuckle:I hear ya dude! I cant stand them either!!
