It’s a good way to get rid of spiders.

fire crews believe the blowtorch is to blame.

What a dumb blowtorch.

You don’t need a blow torch.

We used to kill black widows with wd40 and a lighter. That worked just fine.

Having been bitten by a black widow spider, I can understand this urge. Fortunately I have resisted it.

Where is an editor? Did you opt to burn down the house AFTER killing the spiders with the blowtorch or did he burn it down while trying to kill the spiders using the blowtorch?

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.

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