Aussiegirlsurvivin   1 Posted May 27, 2020 Sorry for the blurry pic but can anybody guess what spider this is..found a lot of small sized redbacks in this house so I’m worried it might be a juvenile female. She has some pale markings on her back oh and yeah that’s her snack right next to her 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quoll   5,244 Posted May 29, 2020 Definitely got the look of one of the widow spiders.  Could be a male redback if you've found them in the house already, they're not so vividly marked and they are quite a bit smaller 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
