Playing with a Black Widow Spider

I found a black widow spider outside around the new house. So I decided to have a bit of fun. :)

[@JDsVarietyChannel]

So when I was getting it out of the jar, my hand got tangled in a strand of it's web, and he almost ran up onto my hand. lol And yes I know it's a female. Saying Mr. spider is just a generic term. :)

[@jenniferwright5536]

How are you doing?

[@ke4uyp]

JD here's my spider hope you like it. www.flickr.com/photos/86086472@N06/11270284634/in/album-72157638474314074/

[@JDsVarietyChannel]

Nice! I actually have a GREAT story about one of those when I was a kid. Haha.

[@SmallTNHomestead]

Noooot funny JD. You almost got what she thought you deserved! Thank God your mother wasn't there. Have a Blessed Easter 《;~)

[@silverserpent6563]

Do you use tick and chigger repellent when detecting? I have bites everywhere since I forgot to put some on Thursday lol

[@sharoncarder3939]

You're too nice. That would be a dead spider if I caught it.

[@yieldingtreasurehunters3345]

You sure are brave to play with him like that I would have smashed him as soon as I saw him

[@mykittenisagrandmaster4381]

Sup Mister JD and everyone have a blessed and wonderful Easter

[@michaelhargis7036]

And I thought Chigg did some dangerous, questionable things. Stop it JD. Entertain us but don't put yourself in harm's way. Have a blessed Easter brother 👊

[@JDsVarietyChannel]

This was for personal fascination, but figured I may as well post the footage. Haha.

[@silverserpent6563]

@@JDsVarietyChannel we miss you J.D.

[@TroutWest]

Oh wow dude. Your widows are massive there!!

[@zaneblanchard4594]

That is an impressive beast - thankfully, we do not count such amongst our natural fauna in the UK. I recall the black snake... Domestic life in the USA seems to have a few more challenges! Stay safe, JD!

[@janelord3061]

Awesome-looking spider. Perhaps a bit risky to taunt her, but you got some great footage. Thanks for sharing.

[@edn6671]

So glad you let it go, kindness is always the best way

[@robin2724]

Wow, you got lucky, they are really fast when they want to be. My Grandfather died from a black widow running up his pant leg and biting him numerous times when he was painting a house. A slow and painful death. Odd to see her out during the day.

[@sheilalart5837]

That is a big one, he is very slow!!

[@donHooligan]

the jar is not cool. how would you like it? udder gnat, great vid, yo

[@dmccoins475]

I try to save as many bugs/spiders/critters as I can.

[@Waldo.Dylan806]

When u gonna start uploading more vids cuz u haven't posted like 4 weeks

[@jaysonatienza8477]

Be careful

[@barbaralong1642]

EEKS! 😱

[@TroutWest]

Marco....

[@bodacious2276]

Her, That's a female. Good on you for letting her go.

[@z50com]

We put a Black Widow and a Yellow Jacket in a jar. . . And the winner was?

[@DavidLopez-ff6pp]

DUDE I HATE THOSE THINGS

[@MrReddragon666]

Idk why I’m watching I dislike spiders....... fffffffffff

[@chucksmiley44]

Low IQ here.

[@cheaplaughkennedy2318]

They sometimes eat their mate , for him it’s a one time thrill . 🤣

[@rodrigob894]

Dot eat it.

[@rodrigob894]

I. No

[@rodrigob894]

Ino

[@joesommers9311]

The female is the venomous one and the male non-venomous and when mating he has to be very careful because he will be her meal ticket!

[@lynnschmidt8421]

What JD, playing with mother nature, those are so bad looking and scary. They are here for a reason soo, thanks for posting that incredible yucking spider. Happy Easter to you and your family! Please some more metal detecting! Thumbs up!

[@JanCannell]

That's a female. The males are quite small and brown.

[@annsmith4721]

Petting bees, playing with black widow spiders? JD, you are such a thrill-seeker! No wonder your dear mom has grey hair!

[@JWsCoinsandHobbies]

Man those things are beautiful.. Never had the nerds to play around with one, but man they are awesome.

[@PapaKryptoss]

What in the heck did you smoke? Lol no spiders for me oh no.

[@dersir]

[@animegirl-mz6bs]

[@silverwheelspatriot1764]

Why? Just why? Isn't this pandemic enough adrenaline

[@marymisdom3955]

I can't help it they are the most hideous creatures. They are too common here in CA.

[@zachstuart1822]

[@1AFVeteran]

Every one of these I have ever came across I help save someone's life, and mine! Black widow spiders are deadly poisonous and the only good one is dead one!

[@mhbears13]

Do you find yourself getting distracted often by what's around you? I do. Haha. I never thought about making my "brain adventures" public.

[@piperlynne1]

Dang squish that spider!!! We have black widows here in BC and they move fast so every time I see one in or around our house they get a fast squishing. And it's a her not a him.

[@pbtascpdebidebi6992]

Is everything okay? Missing your videos......

[@GeneRussell-so2vv]

[@brendajones9377]

Thank you for not killing it! I moved one the other day while cutting grass. Removed a wicked looking house spider out of my house about a month ago! I won't kill them, but I really don't want them close to me!🕷🕸

[@briankesterson4365]

Petting bees, messing with poisonous spiders...what is next? Wrestling black bears? Lol!

[@crete1882]

JD: hey lets record this spider! Me: hey let’s get the flamethrower!

[@hooper4581]
