"the Brown Widow is not as aggressive as the Black Widow"

Good thing. The Black Widows here in SoCal literally charge at your hand if you accidentally brush the web. Had one come on so fast I almost didn't have time to spray her.

Well, it probably was transported on a merchant vessel, and look for it to inhabit other parts of The South.

Closely related to the deadly black widow, the brown widow spider (Latrodectus geometricus) has weaker venom, but nonetheless poses a lethal threat to small children.

Gee, that's just the story I needed to see when I was planning a mission trip back to the gulf coast this fall...

Hmmmm, and I thought that the grey colored black widow that I saw recently in florida was a mutant or something.

Well, I'm in central florida, so they definitely aren't sticking to the coasts.

We have hobo spiders in Idaho. They are poisonous and very aggressive.
