In the unlikely event it survived both the chemical warfare and the fire, it wasn't going anywhere because all its legs were completely burned off.
At my old house, my room was in the basement and a black widow came in through the window right above my bed. I was laying in bed and looked up and it was lowering itself down off my head board towards my face. I grabbed 2 books and clapped that fucker in mid air. I'm not afraid of spiders and I generally leave them be, but if I know it's poisonous, no mercy :chuckles:
