Redback Spider Car Wreck Winter Revisit Google Maps & Shock Discovery EDUCATIONAL VIDEO ─ leokimvideo

Winter revisit of the old car wreck where I released the amazing Redback Spider that was able to kill anything that I presented to it. My Son called it John Cena even though it's a female spider. Redback spiders have the ability to adapt to non natural environments and the rusty old car wreck is obviously far nicer than living under a rock. This video covers 3 separate visits, it's a complex video because complex things happen at the car wreck site. There are more spider egg sacs and spider activity going on. I do try using music tuning forks to lure spiders at the car wreck and I have some really cool footage of this working at home. I also see that the Redback spider who's living inside Mrs Cow has laid a spider egg sac mid winter! It took some time to work out the Google Maps and Google Earth links, and what didn't help was incorrect geo-tagging that my iPhone presented when applied to maps. It's all too complex for me to really understand. I know my audience will help on this issue and see things I miss seeing during this video.

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 3–4 mm (0.12–0.16 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.
