[quote=Anonymous]I was bitten by a Black Widow in AU Park last Fall. The good news is, if you aren't very young or old, it's not too bad. I had stomach pains and general body aches for several weeks, but not bad enough to go to emergency. Although, I should have seeked treatment straight away because it became infected a couple of weeks later. That was probably the biggest danger (a staph infection). I had my arm in the deep dark depths of weeds close to the wooden fence and garage. I now won't garden without long gloves and long sleeve shirts (plus long pants and boots). It wasn't as scary as it sounds and I don't do anything about trying to get rid of them (it would be hard to find them). They don't seek you out. Just be careful when gardening and sweep your porch/keep it clean.[/quote]
