OMG Black Widows... another few days for the bug guy
So I finally called the maintenance man today to come and fix our screen door that has been off of the track for months now. As he approached the door he reached out for it and then pulled back quickly asking me if I knew about the spider egg sacs that were hanging along the outside track of the door. I told him that yes, I knew they were there but I left them be because they were outside where they belonged. He then informed me that they were black widow egg sacs :eek: :eek: He took the screen door across the yard to blast out with a hose and said that he saw hundreds of baby Black Widows go running off into the yard. He then took spider spray and drenched the track of the door and chased out big Momma Black Widow. She was huge and terrifying and thankfully is now dead as a doornail. He said that the spray won't kill the egg sacs but their bug guy will come out first thing in the morning on TUESDAY! He is out of town now :( :( I called the office and they said that they would try to get him to come back into town on Monday but that is all that they could promise right now.
That is the last time that I will just leave a spider sac alone. I don't care if it is outside. That big Momma could have easily done SERIOUS harm to either of my boys or Boomer.... Please think of us and send us some positive thoughts that we don't have any inside the house and that they can come out and take care of the problem very very soon!!!
