Toirtis 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2012 that looks like our Black widow great tie if it is the same spider it is deadly poisonous Same genera, different species...the venom of both has a very similar level of toxicity (LD50 of ~ 0.4mg/kg). Great tie, by the way....te fact that the legs do not have perfectly straight shafts makes the finished bug more creepy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
