Black Widow spiders: the most infamous venomous spider, the adult females have a venomous bite. These spiders are roughly half an inch long, and are black with a red hourglass on their abdomen. Black widows make messy nests under patio furniture, children's play structures, and empty flower pots--any nook that is confined and relatively dark.
Brown Widow spiders: these spiders, similar to black widow spiders, also have an hourglass shape on their abdomen, but orange instead of red. These spiders are a mottled tan color, and have a powerful, venomous bite.
