The house is gone, but, unfortunately, the little bugger is still kicking...

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Disclaimer: Don't do this at home.
Fresno Fire says a man who was house-sitting for his parents set the home on fire after he used a blowtorch to kill black widows.
Yes, you read that right.
Thankfully, firefighters say no one was injured in the fire and the man who initially called them made it out safely.
The house fire happened Tuesday night at a home in the Woodward Lake housing development.
Fire crews say there is damage to the second-story of the home and the attic.
29 firefighters responded to the two-alarm fire and were able to put it out.
Although the exact cause has not been determined, fire crews believe the blowtorch is to blame.

Voted for Hillary in 2016.
A man held the door open for me last night at a gas station, a young man no less - I told him, you must have voted for President Trump.
He had a bright smile back at me and said Yes, I did!

That’s cool. Thanks.
Not Yorba Linda CA ??
I had a black widow in my workshop for a few weeks. She had a little hidey-hole right above the workbench. Beautiful creature. Didn’t bother me and I didn’t bother her. Amazing how many supposed ‘men’ are scared of spiders; dudes that could probably bench more than me and/or kick my ass freaking out like little girls over a creature that only wants to eat mosquitoes and flies... Pussies.
How would Vincent Price have reacted to this?.....
I guess mom & Dad will not ask Jr. to house sit ever again.
You really have to hate and have a fear of spiders - especially Black Widows - to go to that extreme. I hate them but don’t have a blowtorch....
Did he run out of shot gun shells?
Lol No, not Yorba Linda.

Great Flaming Wolf Spiders!
Those Blue/black wasps eat outdoor black widows as their preferred food target.
I recently came home for being out of town for a while and at the edge of a garage door, a large black widow had built up a target at a small entry crack and had grown to be the largest I have ever seen in the Southwest.
Would that work on Honduran invading hordes, too?
Let’s hope the idiot is a democrat... and that our guy’s know better...
