I live in Fresno, which seems to be the Black Widow capital of the world. I am originally from the East Coast, so it still freaks me out to see these guys, but they seem to mind their own business. They are all around my yard, my shed, any furniture outside, so whenever I pick something up or put something on I have to make sure there aren't any black widows in it. You can identify their webs because they make a crisp crackle sound when you break them, unlike most other spiders' webs.
