Well it was like five tissues. I certainly wasn't gonna do it with only one or two. And I was NOT gonna let that thing live. If I let it get away and lost track of it I'd wouldn't be able to sleep in that room. I don't mess with most spiders, so long as they are web spiders, but a Black Widow has to die. I'm not taking the chance of taking it outside and it going back into the house and crawling into my mouth when I'm asleep.

Do you live in a wooden house? As I've also heard (I don't know how true it is) that wooden built houses in the USA are more prone to attract spiders than concrete houses.
Brick. It's the only Black Widow I've ever seen outside of an exhibit, so I figure it was just a freak occurrence, but I can't help but be nervous whenever I try to go to sleep.
