If the thing on its back looks like a skull, it's a False Widow.

Last night a spider crawled under my keyboard.

But it's ok, he's under control.

Probably creating his own website as we speak.

I just killed one crawling along the skirting board with my shoe. Nobody steals my shoes.

He might come out though and move to escape.

False widow or if you're unlucky it's a Brazilian Wandering Spider in disguise!

A thread that you opened.

How bizarre.

False Widow is a spider that never really married?

If by helpful you mean biting mean so that I had a throbbing pain in my back for six months, covering my car in a sticky mess, and rapidly replacing all the native species of spider, then yes, you're right.

They had an "expert" on the news not long ago saying they've now made is as far north as the midlands, but Leeds is full of them.

I was working at a house and talking to a plasterer, he got bitten when rendering an outside wall, he had a bad reaction and his arm swelled up.
I see a fair few when I’m working, I’m careful when I have to turn off water at the stop tap / meter in the pavement, these spiders like these hatches.
