Deadly spider in her Winter lare. Redback spiders are usually near impossible to find in the middle of Winter. In a backyard cleanup I discover a Redback having her Winter nap. She had the perfect spider lare set up in a secluded place. These spiders can go for extended periods of time without food but become highly active in warmer weather. One Female Redback can generate huge numbers of spiderlings without the need of a male spider. With this Redback I investigate using aerosol Lithium grease spray to control and deter spiders. Being spray on it's very convenient to use and it's far less messy than petroleum jelly (Vaseline). I'm noticing lots of different ants in the garden. In particular the Metallic Green Head Ant. This beautiful yet dangerous ant may be what's needed to arrest the upcoming spider infestation. Ants are awesome spider killers if they get caught up in the ants zone. The Redback in this video will be set against the Green-Head Ant that has huge pincers and the ability to sting. I'm sure it will make for an epic bug battle.
I'm out to prove the Australian Redback spider is the most deadly and dangerous spider on the planet. The Female Redback spiders are so adept at killing anything that enters their webs. To see where my spider infestation started look at the video links below.

The Redback spider (Latrodectus hasseltii) is a species of venomous spider indigenous to Australia. It is a member of the cosmopolitan genus Latrodectus, the widow spiders. The adult female is easily recognised by her spherical black body with a prominent red stripe on the upper side of her abdomen and an hourglass-shaped red/orange streak on the underside. Females have a body length of about 10 millimetres (0.4 in), while the male is much smaller, being only 3â4 mm (0.12â0.16 in) long. Mainly nocturnal, the female Redback lives in an untidy web in a warm sheltered location, commonly near or inside human residences. It preys on insects, spiders and small vertebrates that become ensnared in its web. It kills its prey by injecting a complex venom through its two fangs when it bites, before wrapping them in silk and sucking out the liquefied insides. Male spiders and spiderlings often live on the periphery of the female spiders' web and steal leftovers. Other species of spider and parasitoid wasps prey on this species. The Redback is one of few arachnids which usually display sexual cannibalism while mating. The sperm is then stored in the spermathecae, organs of the female reproductive tract, and can be used up to two years later to fertilise several clutches of eggs. Each clutch averages 250 eggs and is housed in a round white silken egg sac. The Redback spider has a widespread distribution in Australia, and inadvertent introductions have led to established colonies in New Zealand, Japan, and in greenhouses in Belgium.
The redback is one of the few spider species that can be seriously harmful to humans, and its preferred habitat has led it to being responsible for the large majority of serious spider bites in Australia.
