Found one of these inside our tent our last morning (came in overnight) and three under the rainfly. All the black widows had three red hearts going down the abdomen (small medium large). Beautiful...and unnerving! Will never forget their deadly beauty. Family went camping at Mammoth Cave in ’96.

Beautiful, creepy, and dangerville! Smart post, lots of people really don't know or realize the dangers. These babies love to hang out in gardens too so watch where you put your hands and use gloves as much as possible. Love the website! My wife and I are in the process of moving to Nevada and setting up a permaculture farm and Earthship home to live simple, take care of ourselves, help save the planet, and teach others how to live sustainably. Your site will definitely be a big help. Keep up the good work. I live in Tennessee also and we find these things all the time. Beautiful, creepy, and dangerville!

See info at web address above. The Southern black widow is most common for bites but all are fairly reclusive. http://entnemdept.ufl.edu/fasulo/woodypest/spider.htm
