    Hi,

    Can you help me ID this spider. Usually find them at night on the outside of the windows. They crawl back into a small metal flap at the bottom of the window when disturbed.


    Thanks

    Thanks! I got a better look at him in the daytime and it seems to be a false widow alright! Really clear markings on the back.

    Hi, I seem to be having a bit of a problem with these. I keep finding more and more. Does anyone have any suggestions for deterrents?
